Poland Council of Ministers Regulation of 28 May 1996 on preventive meals and drinks (Dz.U. 1996 Nr 60 poz. 279). In force. Heat-side provision triggers (no work/rest schedule): outdoor work above 25°C ambient requires free preventive drinks (§4 ust. 1 pkt 3); any workstation where atmospherically-caused temperature exceeds 28°C requires free drinks (§4 ust. 1 pkt 5); a hot microclimate with WBGT above 25°C requires both free drinks and free preventive meals (§4 ust. 1 pkt 1 / §3 ust. 1 pkt 2).
No standalone formula is published for this standard; see programmable logic and parameters below.
Governing metric: Air temperature (°C) and WBGT (°C) — drink/meal provision triggers
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
outdoorDrinkC | 25 |
workstationDrinkC | 28 |
wbgtDrinkC | 25 |
Programmable logic: Outdoor (outdoor === true) and airTempC > 25°C: drinks required. Any workstation with airTempC > 28°C: drinks required. WBGT > 25°C hot microclimate: drinks and meals required. Drinks must be available throughout the shift; meals are distributed during regular breaks. No graduated work/rest schedule — this is a duty/control overlay.
