Q

What is the definition of HEAT STRESS?

A
  • Combo of air temp, thermal radiation, humidity, airflow, and workload which stress the body as it attempts to regulate temp.
  • becomes excessive when the body’s capability to adjust is exceeded, resulting in increase of body temp
    • ** can cause heat injury or death***
