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 there is no legal maximum working temperature, then surfaces the employer duty to keep indoor temperatures reasonable, provide clean and fresh air, and manage outdoor heat risk through practical controls.
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, outdoor
This standard was added to the calculator.
Get notified when UK HSE Temperature Guidance changes — threshold changes, scope and legal-status changes, additions and removals. Changes that permit more heat exposure than before are labelled as such.
