Britain has had an amazing summer this year.  In fact, it isn’t just the UK, 2016 brought the whole world higher average temperatures than ever before.

Keeping Comfort In Mind

The law states that employees have a right to reasonable working temperatures in The Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.  In cooler months, the occupied portions of your premises must not be allowed to dip below 16C (13C where vigorous physical work is common).

While there is not yet a legal upper threshold for temperature, employers are expected to monitor temperatures and prevent workplaces becoming unreasonably hot.  Trade Unions suggest that working temperatures should be kept below 24C.
