Important Cooling Break Intervals During the Heatwave
The heat is getting worse. For those of us who work outside, please follow these helpful suggestions for taking breaks to cool off and drink water. Although it's not included, I recommend eating very lightly. Digestion heats up the body and you can make yourself more sick with a full stomach. Don't expect full cooperation from management, however. Document and REPORT all disrespect and unsafe directives to a trusted union steward/officer.
