Posted By Betty Powton Our business is logistics and warehousing. Under the Management of Health & Safety (Workplace) Regulations we have a duty to maintain a minimum temperature (code of practice suggests 13-18 depending on natute of activity). We are unable to maintain this temperature since the doors are continually open both day and night. It is rumoured that because we operate a flow through warehouse we may not have to maintain the 13-18 but remain obligated to maintain a reasonable temperature. Some of our operators have suggested that there are guidelines to working practices given low temperatures. Can anyone shed any light on this. Any suggestions for resolving this issue.
