Outdoor and indoor WBGT were determined using historical, region-specific hourly meteorological data (temperature, radiation, humidity, wind speed) across Europe, between 1970 and 2024. WBGT values were adjusted for job-specific clothing to obtain WBGTeff. WBGTref was based on metabolic rate, calculated using body surface area and job-specific physical activity, and adjusted for acclimatization status. Further adjustments were made for the job title-specific presence of local heat and cooling sources, time spent indoors versus outdoors, and working schedules. Results The number of annual hours workers experience heat stress is highest among jobs involving local heat sources and physical demanding tasks, especially when work clothing is mandatory. Southern Europe has a higher annual heat stress burden compared to other regions. Exposure varies across calendar years and is substantially higher among unacclimatized versus acclimatized workers. Conclusions Incorporating job-, region-, and year-specific factors, the heat JEM provides a harmonized tool for studying occupational heat stress. Its transparent framework allows for updates with new data and extensions to other years and regions. by de Crom TOE, Scholten B, Traini E, van der Sanden K, Kingma B, Pekel F, Ghosh M, Notø H, Turner MC, Alba Hidalgo MA, Klous L, Albin M, Kolstad HA, Selander J, Calvin Ge C, Pronk A. doi:10.5271/sjweh.4241]]> Risk factors for voluntary early old-age retirement in middle-aged workers: A meta-analysis http://www.sjweh.fi/show_abstract.php?abstract_id=4241 http://www.sjweh.fi/show_abstract.php?abstract_id=4241 Fri, 25 Jul 2025 13:29:53 +0200 Review by Shiri R, Poutanen J, Haukka E, Härmä M, Ervasti J]]>
