As temperatures rise, heat stress has become a major concern in Singapore. It is now a key compliance issue for industries like Construction, Marine, and Process. These sectors must follow strict rules about monitoring Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT), providing mandatory rest breaks, and helping workers acclimatise to the heat. Hear from the heat resilience performance centre who will share detail on heat resilience and how to ensure worker safety.
• Identify the physiological mechanisms and thresholds of heat strain
• Learn how to read and apply site-specific Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) measurements rather than ambient temperature alone
• Acquire practical strategies for deploying cooling interventions on-site
