It was my pleasure to be featured in a recent article by the American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) that describes that launch of the enhanced AIHA Heat Stress App version 2.0. The AIHA app now includes features that incorporate risk factors unique to indoor workers and that calculate the wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) for indoor spaces. This new app version follows the successful launch of AIHA’s original heat stress app in July 2024, which helped outdoor workers and their employers assess job-related heat health risks. In the article, I pointed out some differences in heat stress between indoor and outdoor workplaces.
