A study published in the American Geophysical Union journal says that climate change could mean that eventually tradies may need to start work at 4am to avoid heat stress. It’s also been suggested they should only work 5.7 hours.
Oliver Peterson spoke to Director of Brick Pig Coaching Owen Watson about the research and how practical these suggestions would be in reality.
