Workers in foundries, laundries, construction projects and bakeries to name a few industries -- - often face hot conditions which pose special hazards to safety and health. Four environmental factors affect the amount of stress a worker faces in a hot work area: temperature, humidity, radiant heat (such as from the sun or a furnace) and air velocity. Perhaps most important to the level of stress an individual faces are personal characteristics such as age, weight, fitness, medical condition and acclimatization to the heat. The body reacts to high external temperatures by circulating blood to the skin which increases skin temperature and allows the body to give off its excess heat through the skin. However, if the muscles are being used for physical labor, less blood is available to flow to the skin and release the heat. Sweating is another means the body uses to maintain a stable internal body temperature in the face of heat. However, sweating is effective only if the humidity level is low enough to permit evaporation and if the fluids and salts lost are adequately replaced. Of course there are many steps a person might take to reduce the risk of heat stress, such as moving to a cooler place, reducing the work pace or load, removing or loosening some clothing. If the body cannot dispose of excess heat, it will store it. When this happens, the body's core temperature rises and the heart rate increases. As the body continues to store heat, the individual begins to lose concentration and has difficulty focusing on a task, may become irritable or sick and often loses the desire to drink. The next stage is victim should rest in a cool place and drink an electrolyte solution (a beverage used by athletes to quickly restore potassium, calcium, and most often fainting and then possible death if the person is not magnesium salts). Severe cases involving victims who vomit or lose consciousness may require longer treatment under medical or supervision. Heat cramps, painful spasms of the muscles, are caused when workers drink large quantities of water but fail to replace their bodies' salt loss. Tired muscles used for performing the work are usually the ones most susceptible to cramps. Cramps may occur during or after working hours and may be relieved by taking removed from the heat source. Heat stroke. The most serious health problem for workers in hot environments, is caused by the failure of the body's internal mechanism to regulate its core temperature. Sweating stops and the body can no longer rid itself of excess heat. Signs include (1) mental confusion, delirium, loss of convulsions consciousness, mouth or liquids unless treated promptly. While Fainting (heat syncope) may be for the worker not accustomed to a hot environment who simply stands still in the heat. Victims usually recover quickly after a brief period of lying down. Moving around, rather than standing still, will usually reduce the possibility of fainting. awaiting medical help, the victim must be removed to a cool area and his or her clothing soaked with cool water. He or she should be fanned vigorously to increase cooling. Prompt first aid can prevent permanent injury to the brain and other vital organs. Heat exhaustion results from loss of fluid through sweating when a worker has failed to drink enough fluids or take in enough salt or heat but experiences extreme weakness or fatigue, giddiness, nausea or both. The worker .with exhaustion still sweats headache. The skin is clammy and moist, the complexion pale or flushed, and the body temperature normal or slightly higher.

Heat rash, also known as prickly heat, may occur in hot and humid environments where sweat is not easily removed from the surface of the skin by evaporation. When extensive or complicated by infection, heat rash can be so uncomfortable that it inhibits sleep and impedes a worker's performance or even results in temporary total can be prevented by disability.-I- t resting in a cool place and allowing the skin to dry.
