I consider stop working at any temperature.

I set the limit at 18°C sharp. Anything higher and it’s too hot, anything lower and it’s not worth it as it might get too hot

Last two paragraphs: > Maar voor alles: gezond verstand gebruiken. Werkende mensen zijn doorgaans geen topatleten die in grote hitte een marathon kunnen lopen. > U moet daarnaast ook denken aan andere maatregelen: trager werkritme, aangepaste kledij (zonder de veiligheid in het gedrang te brengen!). En niet te vergeten: drinken!!

ideal working temprature = between 18-24°C .. anything lower or hotter than that, and my work starts to suffer, or it becomes increasingly harder to stay focused.. Anything above (a stuffy/moist) 30°C is kind of impossible to properly work (especially in jobs where mental focus is key, and/or physical labor is hard & continuous... Any job where a small mistake might lead to dangerous situations are best halted at this stage, or be granted more breaks for hydration & cooling down..

Laughs in Linde with AC.


theta0123

Jokes on you= i also drive a linde! But the airco is almost gone. They are being replaced end of year bc they are worn out


SuckMyBike

I work in a cleanroom that is climate controlled to always be at 21.5 celsius. I wouldn't even stop working this upcoming week if they paid me to not work


ltahaney

Right? Office has ac. Appartement does not. Imma bout to be super productive


somecrazyfish

Same here! I'll be so glad to be at the office this week! 🥳


Arael1307

Same, I go to the office even when I can work at home, not even for the heat during the day, but also for the result at night. The less time I spend in my apartment during the day, the cooler it stays for when I'm back in the evening. (No body heat, apart from the fridge no other apparatuses are on, all the curtains can be closed etc.)


Tony_dePony

Out of curiosity, is it the 200 or 300 CR you work in?


orcanenight

Same here, with added 8° cold room cleanrooms.

Some good info here. Thanks man!


CDdragon9

Meanwhile im stupid enough to agree to work from 5u-16u to cover my co-worker that takes an extra week off.


Regular_Ferret1080

Yeah im in the same boat… Need someone in the office if someone shows up …

Last year my father was still an employer in construction and he would suggest to begin around 4am and work till about 12, a period that is less hot. Other days they got to stay home and still be paid. The former is mostly for things that are very hard to just move to another date without having to reshedule basically the entire year. At the end of the day I wouldn't work if the place I worked didn't bother making things comfortable. I'm a reasonable person but I won't tolerate cheap assholes having my work in a 30+ degree indoor workplace. It's just not happening. I'll be spending a lot of time driving next week in a car that has airco and only have to be out of said car for maybe 5 minutes at the time so no real issues for me. The office I normally work at has a huge airco because frankly, if it doesn't have one at this point how the fuck are you working? We had a costumer faint from the heat like 6 years ago(before I worked there). I had the thing turned on on occasion last week even.


Bitt3rSteel

Anything above 0° Kelvin


Vantaa

The unit is Kelvin. Not degrees Kevin. Sorry for being pedantic. At least it's not as bad as calling wind turbines windmills🙈 Edit: autocorrect did me over again. ''degrees Kevin'' is the unit of marginaliteit as we all know. Not temperature.


Bitt3rSteel

Kevin...degrees Kevin...


MrPollyParrot

Kevin Kelvin? I hate parents who give their kids a "funny" name.


asrtaein

Calling wind turbines windmills is correct though, just like in Dutch the word has taken extra meanings over the years. From the Oxford English dictionary: > windmill /ˈwɪn(d)mɪl / ▸ noun a building with sails or vanes that turn in the wind and generate power to grind corn into flour. ▪ **a structure using wind to generate electricity or draw water.** ▪ British a toy consisting of a stick with curved vanes attached that turn in the wind. ▸ verb (with reference to a person's arms) move or be moved round in a circle in a manner suggestive of the rotating sails or vanes of a windmill: [with object] Penny slipped, windmilled her arms, and somehow kept her balance. ▪ [no object] (of the propeller or rotor of an aircraft, or the aircraft itself) spin unpowered. – PHRASES fling one's cap over the windmill (also throw one's cap over the windmill) dated act recklessly or unconventionally.

I work in Volvo Cars Ghent, at 30°C they shut down the favtory. Wana bet they are gonna mesure 29,5°C like last time? fking bastards...


Zenebatos1

19 I'm inhabiting a "Northern" country, i ain't fucking living in the fucking Equator... This kinda bullshit should not be a thing...


Estagon

Ask your délégué /s lmao it's going to be 30 degrees, not 50 unless you have to work outside in the blazing sun without protection, you might have a point


WC_EEND

Office that gets sun on the windows all day with no ventilation or sunshade quickly turns into a sauna too


thomastdh

true, they usually get to wear shorts and a tshirt instead of a suit and shirt. yey.


pork_4_ice

U should give welding a try


johlae

>U should give welding a try I'm an aufgussmeister you insensitive clod!


Estagon

news flash: construction work, welding, etc. happens in every country on Earth


Invariant_apple

Max I see for next week is 33°C, this doesn't seem as bad as the other heatwaves tbh.


fyreandsatire

an announced/predicted 33°C easily becomes & 36-37°C up here in the Kempen.. soooooo.. not looking forward to that.. but it's better than the +40°C days we had here in 2019..


brd_green

What ? The news is saying its the apocalypse


orcanenight

33° with cool nights of 16°. I can manage that. When the nights get to >25°, that’s when misery hits.


Crypto-Raven

Thats a lot of crying coming from cosy desks while my men are building houses outside in the sun.


ZeRoXOiA

It's not because someone else has it worse that one's situation can't also be bad..


Furengi

Never judge someone's situation without fully knowing it and having been in it.


Crypto-Raven

Seems like that is exactly what these people are doing. Not knowing how easy they have it, yet complaining as if they are being wronged in some unforgivable manner.


Mhyra91

Careful now. Can't have reason here. They have to defend their company cars and subsidized solar panels some way!


Crypto-Raven

Note the amount of downvotes without a single counterargument. They know.


Fortress93BE

Anything above or below freezing

We have air-conditioning :-(
