When is it too hot to work? Find out your employee rights ahead of heatwave

As summer begins to kick off, the Met Office has warned the UK will be hit by extremely high temperatures this Friday, with temperatures soaring to 30C in some areas.

In what will be considered the first heatwave of the year, Manchester is expected to see temperatures peak to 27C. While many will be excited to enjoy their time in the sweltering sun, others may find it uncomfortable to work in such conditions.

This is especially true if you are working either outdoors or in an office space with no air conditioning. With this in mind, many workers may be questioning how hot it has to get before it's too hot to work.
