TUC - Tackling high temperatures at work: Wednesday 18 June 2025 | 14:00- 15:00

 

High temperatures are a major problem in the workplace, especially during summer. Excessive heat can cause dizziness, fainting, and heat cramps, posing serious health risks. Workers in outdoor sites, warehouses, and kitchens are particularly vulnerable. Union reps play a crucial role in advocating for safer conditions. Join Shelly Asquith, Health and Safety Policy Officer at the TUC, and Miranda Irwin, Coordinator at Heat Strike, to learn how reps can organise for cooler and safer workplaces.

In the week of 14 – 20 July, we're asking union health and safety reps to inspect their workplace temperatures. Let’s take a collective temperature check, and use it to organise for safer, cooler workplaces this summer!   Sign up to take part, and we’ll send you all the tools you need, including a checklist and thermometer.

Attendees of our live webinar will receive a TUC digital credential to demonstrate what they have learned. Find out more about digital credentials. Live captions will be available during this webinar.
