This standard specifies a method for estimating the thermal stress experienced by a person placed in a hot environment, allowing rapid diagnosis and which is easily usable in an industrial environment. It applies to the evaluation of the average effect of heat on man during a period representative of his activity, but it does not apply either to the evaluation of thermal stresses suffered during very short periods, nor to the evaluation of thermal constraints close to comfort zones.
