world and plays a crucial role in the country’s construction
and infrastructure development. Here's an overview of the
industry:
BRICKS?
METHODOLOY
EMPATHIZE - High levels of heat stress are experienced by people
working at the brick kilns.
RESEARCH - We went through different research papers to know
more about the heat stress issue faced in brick industry.
FIELD SURVEY - We reached out to the nearest brick factory and
went their for a survey.
DEFINE - Although there are equipments to protect the workers,
they do not usually wear those because it hinders their dexterity
while working.
FROM RESEARCH PAPERS.
Urgency of
addressing heat
related health risks
and issues related to
labor productivity.
Workers face
extreme heat from
climate and kilns
health risks like
dehydration, fatigue,
heart issues.
Weak enforcement
of labor laws allows
the unsafe and
unjust practices to
persist across the
industry.
Future climate
change is projected
to exacerbate heat
exposure, increasing
health risks for these
workers.
HOW CAN WE REDUCE HEAT STRESS AND
ENHANCE THE WORKING ENVIRONMENT FOR
WORKER WORKING UNDER TIN SHADES IN
OUTDOOR BRICK MANUFACTURING SITES?
