- Schedule more strenuous work in the cooler parts of the day such as the morning.
- If your building does not have air conditioning, take advantage of cooler buildings such as the Murdock Library, Klages, or Canyon Commons.
- Between the hours of 11 a.m. and 6 p.m., check on fellow employees every hour to two hours.
