Most protective composite

Reference conditions: moderate work (300 W), acclimatized worker. WBGT values below are illustrative reference points, not a threshold of any single standard.

WBGT (°C)	Most protective result
28	30 / 30 min work/rest per hr (most protective)
31	30 / 30 min work/rest per hr (most protective)
34	30 / 30 min work/rest per hr (most protective)

This is the single most protective applicable result at each condition (stop-work override, else minimum work / maximum rest minutes) — standards are never averaged. Contributing standard(s) across these conditions: Belgium Code du bien-être au travail — WBGT Heat Stress Thresholds.
