Heat Breaks Sample Clauses

The Heat Breaks clause establishes the conditions under which work may be paused or adjusted due to high temperatures. Typically, it specifies temperature thresholds or heat index levels that trigger mandatory breaks for workers, and may outline the duration and frequency of these breaks to ensure safety. This clause is essential for protecting workers from heat-related illnesses and ensuring compliance with occupational health and safety regulations in environments where heat exposure is a risk.
Heat Breaks. (a) During days of excessive heat, ambient temperatures in open areas will be monitored by the Quality Assurance Department. No other form of temperature measurement other than that of the Quality Assurance Department will be accepted as a guide for the following. (b) In the event that the recorded temperature within an area is above 35 and below 40 degrees Celsius, employees working on a production line in this area will have a 15 minute break followed by one hour's work. If temperatures remain in this range the process is repeated until temperatures drop below 35 degrees Celsius. (c) In the event that recorded temperatures exceed 40 degrees Celsius, employees working on the production line will have a 30 minutes break followed by work for 1 hour. If temperatures remain above 40 degrees Celsius, this process will be repeated until the temperature falls below this level. Breaks are to be considered as part of these above mentioned heat breaks.
