Check a reading against this rule

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.

Governing formula

No standalone formula is published for this standard; see programmable logic and parameters below.

Control measures

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
