[For Civil Engineering and Construction Supervisors] Regarding the Heat Index (WBGT) and Physical Work Intensity

Supervised by Sysmet Co., Ltd. Weather Forecasters! A simple explanation of the Heat Index (WBGT) and physical work intensity!

Thank you for always reading. This time, we will deliver an article related to heatstroke. In the previous article, we explained the heat index (WBGT) as an indicator to measure the risk of heatstroke, stating that high temperature alone does not define "heat." WBGT is an index that quantifies the risk of heatstroke based on "temperature," "humidity," and "radiant heat." However, the factors contributing to heatstroke are not limited to the outside air. The work being performed at that time and the clothing being worn also significantly affect the risk of heatstroke. Therefore, to prevent heatstroke, it is necessary to consider two factors: "correction based on clothing combinations" and "WBGT standard values according to physical work intensity." In this article, we will introduce these two aspects. *For more details, please visit our company website.

Measures for the mandatory implementation of heatstroke prevention at the workplace starting from June 1: Notification of heatstroke information via business chat.

In light of the recent increase in heatstroke-related deaths due to extreme heat, the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare has announced the revision of the Occupational Safety and Health Regulations, which will take effect on June 1, 2025. There are three measures that businesses should implement: 1. Establishing a system 2. Creating implementation procedures 3. Informing stakeholders Given the heightened risk of heatstroke that has not been seen before, your company is likely taking careful measures for outdoor work. However, in addition to daily operations, monitoring the heat index (WBGT) and sharing information with all stakeholders can be labor-intensive. This is where we would like to introduce a feature! The natural disaster prevention system ZEROSAI provided by Sysmet supports smooth information sharing by automatically notifying heatstroke information through integration with business chat tools! The compatible business chat tools are "LINEWORKS," "direct," "Wowtalk," and "Microsoft Teams." For more details, please visit our website or feel free to contact us.
