Si alguna vez experimentó el funcionamiento de una fundición de hierro, entonces sabe que hace más calor que en el infierno. Para empeorar las cosas, coloque esa misma fundición de hierro en el estado de Texas, que está sufriendo una ola de calor récord de 109 grados. Juntos, estos dos factores pueden provocar un golpe de calor o un caso grave de deshidratación en caso de no hacer algo al respecto.
Ted Sweetman, Tyler Pipe Safety Manager, saw this potential risk and was quick to come up with a solution. The Safety Team at all of our facilities urges team members to drink plenty of fluids and take frequent water breaks to stay hydrated every day, but extreme heat calls for extreme measures. Ted decided to purchase cases and cases of popsicles. Not just the everyday popsicles you buy at the local grocery store, but he checked around and found Squincher in popsicle form. An extra freezer was brought in and quickly stocked and within hours the Squinchers and the popsicles were gone! In the past team members didn’t really like the Squincher drinks, but when it was served up in popsicles, they changed their mind. Squincher helps replace the electrolytes needed to keep their bodies hydrated.
Nos quitamos el sombrero ante Ted por ocuparse de mantener al equipo de Tyler seguro durante este extenso verano caluroso.
