EDMONTON As Edmonton temperatures soar past 35 degrees, outdoor labour workers are trying to find ways to keep cool. Adam Sand, owner of Sargeant’s Solar Roofing, says it is important for workers to stay aware of what they are feeling. Discussing signs of dehydration and heat stroke with his team, Sand says his priority is keeping employees safe while meeting deadlines. “Most people have no idea how hot it is up there because it’s actually 10 degrees hotter on the roof,” said Sand. “Days like today – it s miserable.” The scorching hot weather means workers can easily scuff the shingles. To avoid damages to the roof, the owner says he needs to be selective on where employees can work that day. Describing the work as “unpredictable,” Sand says he is dealing with customer complaints.
