first, i think heat does not get the same kind of attention compared to other climate and weather hazards, because it is largely invisible. and also in this case, we undertake work in singapore and beyond singapore, in southeast asia, looking at workers under extreme conditions, in hope to recommend practical strategies to optimise health and work productivity. and you actually mentioned the physical toll on delivery riders in seoul, the same as on an ultra marathon runner. can you just talk us through? yeah, i think that was quite disturbing on one hand, because coming from a sport science perspective, and one look with internal temperature of 38 ish, heart rate, cardiovascular strain of 130 beats per minute, from an acute exercise perspective, it
and you actually mentioned the physical toll on delivery riders in seoul, the same as on an ultra marathon runner. can you just talk us through? yeah, i think that was quite disturbing on one hand, because coming from a sport perspective, and one look with internal temperature of 38 ish, heart rate, cardiovascular strain of 130 beats per minute, from an acute exercise perspective, it seems to be doable. but bear in mind these workers are doing this job every day, sometimes seven days a week, many weeks, many months, many years. so it s not rocket science for us to realise that at some point, the physiological system will be compromised. and yeah, if you just compare that ultramarathon, it would probably do one or few races a year to have that kind
