Outdoor workers heatstroke prevention and cooling measures?

The weather in Guangxi is sultry recently. Today (19) to the 22nd, the highest temperature in most parts of southern and western Guangxi will even reach 35 and 36℃. This weather has brought a severe "baking" test to outdoor workers. Hot weather can easily lead to heatstroke, so how to prevent heatstroke?

The most fundamental way to prevent heatstroke is to avoid engaging in heavy physical labor for a long time in a high temperature environment. Because the weather is very hot, a little work will make you sweat. If you do heavy manual work, the chance of heatstroke will be quite high. Therefore, to prevent heatstroke, it is necessary to reduce the workload and intensity of work. Outdoor work should seize the cool time in the morning or evening. The temperature is the highest from noon 12 to afternoon 15, so the exposure time should be reduced. When you have to work, the duration should not be too long, and you should have a rest in the shade every two hours.

After working for a period of time, you can drink some summer food such as mung bean soup. If you can't avoid working in hot weather, preparing some Huoxiang Zhengqi water in advance can reduce the occurrence of heatstroke. Remember to drink plenty of water, and if necessary, drink some light salt water to replenish the electrolyte lost in the body.

Pay attention to personal wear to prevent heatstroke. Work clothes should be loose cotton with good air permeability, which can release heat in the body in time and ensure normal perspiration. It is best to wear light-colored clothes when going out, and remember to bring umbrellas, sun hats, sunscreen and other items to prevent heatstroke to some extent.
