Governing formula

Control measures

Governing metric: Risk assessment, welfare, and imminent-danger controls

Programmable logic: Surfaces Kenya's general employer duties for safe systems of work, risk assessment, drinking water, first aid, safety committees, audits, and stopping operations where imminent and serious danger exists, while clearly noting the absence of a dedicated heat-specific national rule.

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.

Inputs

Required inputs: none

Optional inputs: airTempC, indoorTempC, wbgtC, outdoor
