 Hi Phillip, 

With the UK experiencing warmer weather this week, workplace challenges often follow. While a spell of hot weather can lift spirits, it can also affect concentration, attendance, and create health and safety risks.

That’s why we’ve created a short guide, 'Employer’s Guide to Hot Weather in the Workplace' https://wn.worknest.com/e/398692/ospect-may26-hot-weather-guide/dl6tlc/2209770025/h/We4hSLBDB5mJ-1Ehxhr5KPoc6LffmC15uSJx9jbC_xs, covering six common issues employers may face during periods of hot weather, along with practical steps to support employees, stay compliant, and keep your workplace running smoothly.

Download the guide here: https://wn.worknest.com/e/398692/ospect-may26-hot-weather-guide/dl6tlc/2209770025/h/We4hSLBDB5mJ-1Ehxhr5KPoc6LffmC15uSJx9jbC_xs

Here’s a snapshot of what’s covered:
- Productivity: Practical ways to keep employees focused, comfortable, and engaged during hot weather.
- Dress code: How to balance comfort and professional standards while avoiding discrimination risks.
- Sickness absence: Managing increases in short-term absence and responding to suspected ‘sickies’.
- Temporary flexibility: Responding to requests for adjusted hours or homeworking during hotter periods.
- Health and safety: Tips for protecting indoor and outdoor workers from heat-related risks.
- Refusals to work: What to do when employees raise concerns about working in high temperatures.
