Heatstroke season starts in May! Let’s start raising awareness now!

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

Everyone, are you assuming you're okay just because it's been a little cold lately?

They'll be here any minute now.

 

That's right!

That's it!!!

Heatstroke!

 

You're probably thinking, "There's still a long way to go," right?

Generally speaking, the recent trend has been starting in May.

It seems the numbers start to gradually increase around this time.

The data's a little old, lol

You don't necessarily need something like air-conditioned clothing, but taking some heatstroke prevention measures now can make a big difference during the summer.

Surprisingly, we construction workers have such resilient bodies that we can work just fine even in heat like this, but,

It's all about accumulation!

The fatigue from the heat builds up, and then one day, it just hits you all at once.

 

As we get older, our bodies' ability to retain water decreases, so those of us in our 40s need to make sure to stay hydrated!

And during the summer, I’d love for the guys around me to become the kind of guys who are always telling everyone, “Drink some water! Drink some water!”

I’d like them to issue reminders—especially to young people—to drink water and take breaks.

Heatstroke Prevention Measures

If the older guys don't take a break, it's hard for the younger ones to take one, you know~

Guys, starting around this time of year, let’s keep an eye on the temperature and stay mindful of the work conditions around us ^^

If there's a lousy old guy around, please give him a heads-up, lol.

 

See you later.
