Rejected petition: Introduce a maximum safe working temperature to protect health at work.

Rejected on

Over the years the UK has continued to get hotter and hotter, we need a safe working max temperature limit, the current wording reasonable doesn't suffice. We are expecting 40°c heat again which is a danger to life with red warnings from met office to support this. Please assess for safety of all.
