Maintaining your composure while working in the heat can help you stay alert, focused, and safe at work—it may even save your life. Here are some tips for staying cool at work during the warmest days of the year.
… Exciting things will happen, you hold the key.
DRINK WATER.
Being hydrated is essential. Drinking little amounts of water every 20 minutes or so is crucial, rather than waiting to take a sip until you’re thirsty. By doing this, you can make sure that your organs have access to water throughout the day and that you remain hydrated.
It’s also crucial to start drinking water as soon as you get up, well before it gets hot, and before you start working. You can make sure you always have water on hand by packing one or two water bottles.
HAVE DRINKS YOU ENJOY.
You can stay hydrated by drinking different drinks if you don’t like plain water. Even if consuming large amounts of caffeinated beverages is not advised, it is acceptable to have some caffeine in your drinks because you will still benefit from the liquid.
USE A PERSONAL FAN.
If you don’t have air conditioning in your office and installing it isn’t an option, make sure you have access to a personal fan. You can stay cool, but make sure to keep fly-away paper off your desk!
HAVE BLINDS ON WINDOWS.
Consider putting curtains or sunscreens to stop too much sunlight from entering and heating the office if it has wide windows that serve as a suntrap. Sunscreens and shutters can help lessen the amount of glare from the sun on work screens, saving your eyes.
