The TLV work-rest regimens for occupational exposure to heat : a review of their development / J.B. Malchaire
Sumario: A comparison is made between two different approaches for specifying maximum allowable exposure time to heat stress conditions. A rational derivation is given for wet bulb globe thermometer limits for different work-rest regimens that are in close agreement with the ACGIH TLV recommendations. The significance of these limits is discussed. A simpler version of the heat stress index is presented and the advantages of the two methods are compared
