Romania OUG nr. 99/2000 (approved by Law 436/2001). Extreme high temperature = outdoor air temperature above 37°C OR a temperature-humidity index above 80. Tier 1 minimum measures mandatory whenever triggered (reduced workload, ventilation, shaded rest, 2–4 L mineral water/person/shift, PPE, showers, medical surveillance). Tier 2 escalation (reduced/split day before 11:00 and after 17:00, or collective stoppage) by employer–worker agreement once the condition persists ≥2 consecutive days.

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
Triggered if airTempC >37°C OR caller asserts romaniaTempHumidityIndexOver80 = true (the ordinance does not publish the index formula, so it is not computed in-engine). Triggered: Tier 1 mandatory controls + 2–4 L water/shift, no automatic stop. If caller asserts romaniaExtremePersists2Days = true: surface Tier 2 options (reduced/split day, collective stoppage by agreement) as an alert.
Collective stoppage is by agreement, not automatic, so stopWork stays false.
Required inputs: none
Optional inputs: airTempC, relativeHumidity, date, outdoor, romaniaTempHumidityIndexOver80, romaniaExtremePersists2Days
Recovered from repository history: optionalInputs, requiredInputs, ruleType changed. The direction of the safety effect was not computed, because reproducing it would require running the engine as it stood on that date.
