Evening flat if the cost me called a saw in diesel to could keep the patient the only thing Global Temperatures will increase the risk of suffering right before the big issue for those he was outside the visual need. But that laugh showed that the 2 lovely swell instead of to sit down. So the extra clearly to do means on do down the hall and on the beneath the scorching sun to peasants. Take a break while working a field. Its hard talking work the best oral setting makes an obvious point. Eat and work never did mix well. The when men go painted this work in 1889, the world had already unconsciously started a new climate age the the age of unprecedented Global Warming. The most recent years have been the warmest that have ever been on record. The Climate Change is threatening the health of new the ends of workers who are directly exposed to the heat. Once more, it produces their productivity and brings into question the conventional model of growth to always produce more faster. The warming climate is reaching an insurmountable limit. The balance set by the human body. Can we keep working as we always have in a hotter world . And at what price the same on the other line, its better to get your basic were still kind of the summer saying the range, you know, to the top part of estimates that im going to pay just the bottom of what im talking about. And this one was the one that we shouldnt make if i leave with be able to get before he doesnt mind on the bed. Thats an old one. Its open only on one side and has no ac. I can see system thats even worse than city of what else . What is the to the driver side table felt like it was 50 degrees in the cabin, then up to one sided out theres, you know, but i do wonder, imagine its like a green house in there. It wasnt in there like a sauna, so i live in november to 98 percent oxygen saturation part rates, 79. 00. So in 2 experts are here as part of a joint project by the in government and the non profit organization. You know, you, theyre trying to safeguard against the effects of heat in the workplace. Taking a picture with the thermal camera, their job is to assess the health risks the heat poses for italian workers. As the inside of this measures, your heart rate exhaustion, high precision. And sometimes im busy, especially mild though. Yes. Because of its hong size. Its very hard to sort of miss bad weather is full cost to be storms right away on these are you working with . This is on super sufficient feeding Climate Change a little bit more each year. Each year in italy, more than 4000. 00 work accidents are attributed to excessive heat. Anyone who works outdoors is the 1st to be exposed to the risks of longer and hotter summers the if you need to add that on. Besides, you just dont want to go to a fund any steps 1st you start switching. Yeah. With the switch to montana, theyre getting the hydrated of losing mineral to be that can cause from that tire and confusion and then the worst pieces off your loss of consciousness, each stroke for, for the cover when you have to act fast, to prevent tragic situation. But i mean for the heat to enable into these workers or people to open up when you guys are going for the active learning vicious this man is suffering from heat stress. His heart needs to be faster to transport the heat, to the skin where it will be dissipated through sweat. The higher the humanity, the less width evaporates and the faster the heart beats to compensate. As a natural reaction to the body attempts to reduce collectivity to keep the heart rate stable. If thats at all possible minus w by wednesday and see that level i t of as they wont display people in the me, the speed that silver mine here was under severe physiological stress was weird including the hindered switching was action to his heart rate grew sharply to nearly a 140. 00 piece per minute and quarter and together 5 thing repeatedly what i can. But the reason the heart is working so hard is because of thermal regulation. Instead of trying to keep the bodies temperature around 37 degrees, i dont mean when it rises cannot. It is like a car without your radiator it overheat. Such engine keeps getting hotter and hotter. And if youre into it, stops is going to be paid on the top of most somebody saying, but the sunsets simple rules. It forces the body to slow down what workers or just subject to the laws of nature. To remove the articles in todays paper, what does it stable . She says she started feeling ill in the sun and died on the roof of the hanger. Did you come on knowing as a worker from romania little manual establish yesterday as a chest that was yesterday before a father of 4 children. That meant so it was likely a heart attack. Should i miss you . See that didnt fit. We need it. Getting to yesterday was the time to act for too late. Today i have a little from now weve got to read this awful news of a romanian who leaves behind a family of 4 children, the level that 40 can and just because you went to work and quite a little fee cause a bad repair quite in 1. 00 table 57. 00, what i was just hard to imagine how such a thing could happen on the official complaint and just shoot that meeting. And then i proceeded 10 workers in italy died from heat exposure in the summer of 2022. In france, 7 people died on the job, also likely as a result of increasing temperatures. A year later, the summer of 2023 was once again the hardest summer recorded in the northern hemisphere. Since the records began the basically the entire country seeing temperatures over 90. And if you take it a step further, over the coming days, more than 60000000 people across the country who experienced temperatures overall 100 degrees heat advisories, going up all over the place from texas throughout the south. And its also starting to push into the east coast and into the northeast. The, the number of heat waves in the us has tripled in the last 60 years. Heat stress cost more than 1500. 00 deaths in the us in 2022. And a growing branch Package Delivery, seeing more and more cases, the family of waco, us worker who died on the job over the summer, is file a wrongful death lawsuit against the company. On august 12th, Jose Cruz Rodriguez was found dead at the u. B. S. Facility on franklin avenue yesterday is mom and dad filed suit against dps and 2 supervisors. They say their son died of heat stroke. Thats no pain that i wish upon nobody. You know, my son was young. He had a whole life again. I dont think he he to service Jose Cruz Rodriguez died age 23 from hyperthermia. After he complained to feeling unwell on his delivery route. The drivers unions, the teamsters saying his sudden desk is no isolated case at u. B. S. Nationwide. The company is among those with the greatest number of heat related work accidents. This company, and this is the fact that just came out posted record, 2nd quarter profits 8. 5 percent over what they made last year during a pandemic. Right. And theyre projected for, for your backs, you brothers and sisters, to have revenue of over a 100000000. 00 in 2022. Thats great news because its a solve and company. But heres the bad news. Last week on thursday and friday, 4 of our members on long island downtown and had had to go to Emergency Rooms because of the heat. Today people are going to say its a nice day. Yeah, its a nice day. But, but your package cars are still going to be way over a 100 degrees. Imagine if you had the um, how does just put on the street at a 150 degrees, asphalt, or during a blizzard . And they told him, hey, work from there. And were going to be watching you while you do it. Space the brothers assistance, the perot and is the teamsters representative of the union is one of the most powerful groups supporting drivers in the us. So coming out its struggling to have the management of us introduce measures to improve the safety of its drivers like putting air conditioning in the trucks. Remember that these um new trucks that are coming in, theyre mounting with dashboard cameras. Theyre installing other cameras with driver facing sensors, but they wont give us the bare minimum. They wont at least put fans in the trucks. Were saying that we get people are dying because of the heat and then they have the money to of what kind of or how yeah, and the typical driver will make a 130 to 200 deliveries a day. Okay. Theyre getting in and out of the truck. Theyre working 1112 hours a day that i experienced as myself you. You go to a location and you walk in covered in sweat, exhausted, looking like youre going to say. And the 1st thing out of a customers mouth is dont you guys have ac in the truck . No. Oh my god. Have a cup of water, sit out. The heat is through the in the summer temperatures in the back of the vehicle regularly reach higher than 50 degree celsius. Thats where the driver spend part of the day, sorting their packages. But us delivery personnel arent just exposed to extreme heat. Theyre expected to work quickly to the drive with their doors open to save time. And if stop every one of their movements is monitored by software on board the truck. Then its analyzed by managers for potential time losses. It feels like you have a gun to your head all day long. Youre constantly being harassed about the gaps in between your time. Theyre telling maddox system, theyre sparks system. It tells them how long it should take you to do a stop that was stop. Could be an envelope of documents for a can be 40 packages that weigh 50 pounds each to this warehouse here. But to the computer, thats all the same thing. Its a race with time that makes delivery personnel blind to their bodies signals. This u. P. S. Worker in arizona and was filmed by a Customer Security camera. He has all the symptoms of heat stroke. Even if he wants, he doesnt forget to record his stop before he goes back to his vehicle. The. And even though it was going on, its you know, the sweat and the life. Think about your out of your vehicle and all of a sudden things are foggy. You see, and little, little stars. Im thinking okay, well by 1145, i gotta get that, that building finished and i gotta get to the next one. But. So yeah, you know, for me im on a time schedule. Im not thinking about, oh, whats going on for the share you though the, the last thought i would might was the failures or 6 years ago, jim clint nearly died at the wheel of his delivery truck, the former and us driver. Thanks, the presence of mind of his wife, a nurse, urged him to go to the emergency room. The final diagnosis was a key renal failure. And that goes on to explain about the q to be learned across us and that the hydration was resolved. This was all pertaining to a, renal failure, the despite 15 years driving experience and the prevention advice of his employer, jims body and its limits that day. The ability to hydrate, hydrate, hydrate, hydro, and in your mind the whole time, you know, youre just thinking ok, what didnt i do, right . To always make toys what than i do, right . And, you know, bottom line is, it comes down to the fact that, that youre not getting into main situations. Youre in very int, he made situations, you know, you know, human goes through life 10 hours a day in a 150 degree weather. The, this doesnt happen. Less of a company made almost 5000000000 dollars last year, but they say it hasnt calculated the cost of air conditioning because i say it wouldnt be effective since approximately frequent stocks and the doors were open. Now some ask for say, there could be other Solutions Like allowing more time for breaks from temperatures, rise to dangerous levels. And ask for joe quick. He told us hes considering retiring early, even though its going to mean it covers we bought her right away. For the 1st time, you can ship that in the comes through. The luckily jims kidney failure did become chronic. The organs recovered, even though they are still damaged. An inability to cope with the heat finally drove jim to give up his job. Shocked by the behavior of his company is wife teresa started a petition to force us to install air conditioners and the trucks. Through this she discovered how desperate gps workers are all over the country. All right, so. Okay. My fiance is a driver and i have firsthand seen him after work completely exhausted on the brink of heat exhaustion, a stablished as a driver. We spent a lot more time inside the vehicle, then we should. We dont get to started earlier or have work fluid adjusted. Something has to give. We have 1000000, 312000 656 position signers. The according to independent research by nbc. Between 20152019. At least 107 u. P. S. Workers have to be hospitalized through the heat related work accidents. And the authorities in the unit say the true figure could be much higher. They have tried to hide injuries, especially that accidents. They try to keep you from reporting something theyll say, well, you know what, go home, take a couple of days or not knowing what its going to do to your body 10 years from now. The current study, warrens but delivery staff faced the risk of developing Chronic Kidney Disease like the kinds observed in central america. When we asked the company said the health of its workers, was that top priority we believe that by training our people to be prepared and by providing ample resources for support and hydration, we can continue to keep them safe. Last summer we accelerated the installation of fans in every small Package Delivery vehicle in the us and provided our employees with 260000 new uniforms. With waking dry fits shirts and performance fabric shorts. More than one 164000 cooling tunnels. More than 31000000 bottles of water plus ice and fruits with high water content since 2011 osha the us Work Safety Authority has fine due 7 times for insufficiently protection, for its employees. The finds were never in excess of 15000. 00. At a national level, complaints against companies are rare because in the us there are no required nationwide laws to force employers to prevent heat stress. Lets face it. There will always be the need for those kind of workers in the outdoors and into warehouses. So we should come to grips with it and finally has some standards to protect them. A member of the us house of representatives from california duty to his spot for 15 years to include heat protection and federal labor law. In 2006, she saw state law passed, requiring companies to offer water and breaks the labors, working in temperatures over 35 degrees celsius. California actually has had millions of penalties imposed on employers. I still think that california can do a better job in terms of the inspection. So nonetheless, of course, we dont have enough penalties across United States because the conditions havent even been implemented by osha so we have to have those rules there as a condition, a work for both indoor and outdoor workers. The representative has found an important ally in the white house, president joe biden, and vice president. Cumberland harris are demanding that osha develop regulations to prevent heat stress on the job. The outdoor heat, indoor heat, presents a Workplace Safety issue, and employers are responsible for protecting their workers in the workplace from the dangers of the heat, including in farm field and delivery man everywhere that has its no easy feat. While there are standards, osha has failed to create official laws and guidelines for their implementation. And i definitely think that there will be industries that wont be resistant because they would say that it will make them lose money that their workers wont be as productive. But is it really as simple as protecting labor equals reduce profits . A few companies have recognized in the meantime that doing nothing can be the most costly strategy of all the us. Good temperatures during a heat wave is all set to unfortunately, continue for the next 2 days on temperatures actually on the weekend, touched 49 degrees. The message often does one advice we often allow that to people know to windshield outdoors on this absolutely necessary. The in 2022 india had a historic heat wave that lasted for more than 3 months. It seemed to confirm the predictions of climate researchers that our future will be full of earlier, more frequent and more severe heat waves. Global warming could force India Economic growth to make an emergency stop thats because the heat has costs and the economists are Getting Better and better at quantifying them. The you can have efficiency on the y axis and temperature on the x axis. So totally good 0 and too many studies we have seen that the human body has a test or at the 18 degree celsius when both temperature. So this goes funds to drain 930. 00 degrees as this in the j temperature. You see that the efficiency of the productivity, of any human or domestically follows and continues to follow. The common sector is one of the largest employer in the phone, the space of women that are approximately 45000000 workers in this space. And the majority of them are women, the piece of work are the set of production lines. So they are situated in a close to each other, and the work is foss fees. So when workers are so closely situated apart from the room, temperature says theres other sources of body heat thats coming out. The, as the im being under the room, temperature is increasing the effect on the human bodies way to your mental abilities. Start slowing down, you know, physiologically your body is getting tired, foster and in the factories, the vague targets that upset the textile workers are in a bind. The climate is forcing them to slow down. While the system demands, they work faster and faster. Maybe for 5 to 10 minutes, maybe 20 minutes, you can push and still meet your targets. But at the end of the day, you will definitely reach a situation where the fatigue will be too much for you to control. It might start at one wrong step out of that, and then by the end of the day, youre just making mistakes. Farther on of the spot from you and not able to commit to meeting your targets. You can also lose your job. The indian textile julia srahi can precisely measure how temperature impacts its employees. To the degree. The Company Discovered this almost accidentally. So we started making notes. We chatted them a zip, so we can dig for reduction in part consumption. So that we started identifying. I really appreciate and see ladings in place of conventional compact photos and lamps which use more to electricity. And also there is a lot of heat. The electricity gets converted into heat, which is not required in the factories that have a that ended up adopting any lights. We saw that the productivity or the efficiency of workers did fall in the boss that aging degrees s o in. But it didnt fall as drastically as in those factories where that is, the lightning still exis
