Summer Heat in Minnesota

sawynia

I have employees that work in greenhouse and the heat with the humidity is more than some can handle. We are handing out popcicles to our ee's to help and I want to get some the gatorade powder to mix up gatorade, but don't know where I can get it other than as Sam's Club. Does anybody know where I can find the 9-gal packs of powder other than at Sam's and/or Costco?

Also, what else do you give to ee's to help keep them cool in the summer to ward off heat stress and stroke?

Check out lss.com- lab safety supply. They have a bunch of heat related safety devices. One cheap and effective one is a headband that you can freeze.

And polar neck wraps. You soak them in water till they swell, then tie them around your neck. It helps us keep cool in Death Valley...but then, it's a dry heat.

We adjust hours in the summer. . start early before it is as bad. .
