Heat stress affects one in three workers in Greece, report finds

A report by the Hellenic Institute for Health and Safety at Work (ELINYAE) reveals that one in three Greek workers is exposed to extreme heat in the workplace, surpassing the EU average of one in five. The study highlights the growing impact of climate change on working conditions and recommends practical measures to mitigate heat stress. These include adjusting work schedules, providing shaded rest areas, using cooling technologies, and educating workers on recognizing heat-related illnesses. ELINYAE emphasizes the urgent need for adaptation due to rising temperatures, calling heat stress a current rather than future issue.
