- CCOHS: Humidex Rating and Work
If you know the temperature and relative humidity, the humidex table from the Government of Canada can be used to determine the humidex rating For example, if the temperature is 30°C and the relative humidity is 70%, the humidex rating is 41 This level is considered a level of "great discomfort," and exertion should be avoided
- Humidex-based Heat Stress Calculator and Plan (Indoor Workers . . . - OHCOW
The following Humidex-Based Heat Stress Calculator uses temperature and humidity percentage (%) to calculate humidex and provides recommended actions
- Feel miserable out? How our bodies react when humidex values soar
If it’s 95°F (35°C) with a relative humidity of 42 percent, the heat and humidity combined would make it feel like about 101°F (38°C)
- City of Toronto shares advice for residents to keep cool during first . . .
ECCC is forecasting daytime high temperatures of 30 to 35 degrees Celsius with humidex values of 40 to 45, and nighttime temperatures of 20 to 23 degrees Celsius with humidex values of 26 to 30 Extreme heat poses significant health risks including heat stress, heat stroke and even death
- Humidex - WorkSafe Saskatchewan
Humidex is a term to measure how hot we feel Weather forecasters use the humidex to describe when heat and humidity combine at uncomfortable or dangerous levels
- Humidex - Sun Safety at Work Canada
Monitoring the humidex is part of how workplaces can assess worker risk for heat from the sun every day If the humidex is 30 or above, your workplace will need to use heat alert or heat warning posters and take recommended actions to prevent heat stress
- CCOHS: Temperature Conditions - Legislation
Temperatures between 17°C and 20°C and above 26°C can be uncomfortable, and occupancy in each of those extremes should not exceed 1 hour daily or 40 hours annually Section 74: Thermal conditions Appropriate to nature of the work, effective protection of worker health and safety, and reasonable thermal comfort
- Canadian Humidex Calculator - CSGNetwork
In hot, humid conditions, there is a considerable risk of heat stroke and sun stroke Despite its limitations, the humidex remains a useful means of determining how hot it actually feels outside By entering the air temperature and the humidity level, the Humidex Calculator will tell you how the air really feels
