30 Answers
How hot is too hot?
If you are pregnant and working in an office in a sedentary desk job - how hot is too hot? Before its deemed illegal or unsafe?
There is air con... but one unit is not working and so not proving as effective.
By law - what must you be provided with?
The air temp outside is much warmer than inside... but the rooms do get warmer during the day as the sun moves round.
A fan can be provided and adjacent air con units are working. But some people complain of being too cold as they are under the air con unit and some complain of being too hot (where it doesnt quite reach them!)
