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.
No standalone formula is published for this standard; see programmable logic and parameters below.
Programmable logic
Confirms the EU framework duty to ensure workers' safety and health, avoid and evaluate risks, combat risks at source, adapt work to the individual, prioritize collective protection, and inform, consult, and train workers. It does not claim an EU-wide numeric heat limit.
This standard does not take WBGT as a required input, and publishes no standalone numeric parameter table here; see the governing metric and programmable logic above, and the primary source below.
Required inputs: none
Optional inputs: airTempC, indoorTempC, wbgtC, outdoor

If a threshold, trigger, exemption, date or duty here disagrees with the governing text, tell us and point at the section. The form arrives with this standard already named, and a correction is checked against the same primary document it was encoded from.
