Unless you like to get a figurative sledgehammer against your resin when getting out, we recommend that the temperature difference with the outside does not exceed 5 degrees. But at 28ºC or higher, the air conditioning also increases your safety, because with these mercury increases, your concentration quickly decreases. Temperature differences greater than 6 ºC can lead to head and throat pain and colds.

“Working in extreme heat or sun poses risks to your health. By law, you may interrupt your work if the heat is seriously and immediately dangerous to your safety and health. Working in extreme cold or heat is often very annoying, but not immediately dangerous. You don't have the right to refuse work just like that. However, you and your employer must take measures so that you can carry out your work safely ”.

For example, you may experience fatigue, dizziness or dehydration.
