Azerbaijan Labour Code (in force 1 July 1999) Article 233(2) and Annex 2(1): when the air temperature is strictly above +41°C, all work stops in the open air and in enclosed buildings, rooms or premises without cooling equipment, and workers are given the opportunity to cool down and are granted breaks. Breaks are set jointly by the employer and the trade-union body, are included in working time and are paid at the worker's tariff wage (Art. 233(4)); stoppage (idle) time is paid at not less than two-thirds of the tariff wage (Art. 233(5)). Annex 2 also sets cold/wind stoppage conditions, which are out of scope for heat.

This rule has no numeric trigger the calculator evaluates — it states duties and control measures rather than a threshold a reading can be checked against. Its measures are listed below.
stoppage = airTempC > 41 (open air or uncooled enclosed premises)
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
stopWorkThresholdC | 41 |
Programmable logic
If outdoor is explicitly false the engine reports not applicable: Art. 233(2) covers open-air work and enclosed premises WITHOUT cooling equipment, and the calculator cannot infer the absence of cooling, so no heat stoppage is asserted for an indoor worksite.
Otherwise, when airTempC is strictly above 41°C, stopWork is true with 0 work minutes and 60 rest minutes, and the paid cooling-break and stoppage-pay duties are surfaced. At or below 41°C no stoppage is asserted. No graduated work/rest table is published by the article, so none is fabricated.
Required inputs: airTempC, outdoor
Optional inputs: none
