Marleys safe in the sun campaign header

We are urging outdoor workers to stay safe in the sun!

This year's Safe in the Sun wellbeing campaign focuses on working in the heat and how to prevent and spot the signs of heatstroke. 

As summer arrives in the UK it's important outdoor workers understand the risks of working in the heat and how issues like heatstroke can be prevented. Marley's survey found while 68% of roofers said sun safety was communicated in the workplace, nearly a fifth said their employers do not address it.

To help contractors stay safe in the summer heat, Marley has launched its annual Safe in the Sun campaign and is sharing the following tips from the Health and Safety Executive. We're also giving away a limited number of branded t-shirts alongside a branded cooling towel to help keep workers safe this summer.

Do you know the signs of heat exhaustion and heatstroke? The NHS advises to watch out for the below:

  • Excessive sweating and skin becoming pale and clammy 
  • Fast breathing or heartbeat
  • Having a high temperature and being very thirsty

What are the steps you can take to ensure safe working ways in the sun? The HSE gives the following advice for companies whose employees work in hot environments:

  • Reschedule work to cooler times of the day
  • Provide more frequent rest breaks and introduce shading to rest areas
  • Provide free access to cool drinking water
  • Encourage workers to remove PPE when resting to help to help encourage heat loss
  • Make sure workers can recognise the early symptoms of heat stress
