Evaluate the health risks associated with heatwaves in occupational settings and propose adaptive public health strategies.
Conducted a narrative review of existing literature on occupational heat exposure and health effects.
Identified key pathways that increase vulnerability in occupational populations compared to the general population.
Examined current adaptation strategies and gaps in implementation, especially in low- and middle-income countries.
Found that occupational populations experience significant cumulative physiological strain from heat exposure.
Identified critical health impacts, including heat-related chronic diseases and mental health issues.
Highlighted the need for improved work–rest scheduling and early warning systems for heat resilience.
