Description
Hot summer temperatures make working outside difficult for everyone. Construction workers, landscapers, and farmers all work outside and can be adversely affected by high temperatures. Disabled workers can be even more affected. Those with disabilities related to endurance, respiratory, neurological, and heat tolerance will be most affected. The exposure to heat may exacerbate preexisting conditions, including cerebral, respiratory, and cardiovascular diseases. It can also have an impact on those taking medications.
Cooling Arm Sleeves pull moisture off the skin and allow for easier evaporation, thus cooling the arms. Sun protection is an added benefit, also helping with the cooling effect.
A construction worker who is taking psychotropic or diuretic medication or has MS and is outside all day in the heat and sun can wear Cooling Arm Sleeves to manage the heat stress.
