COP28 Workers at Risk: How Extreme Heat Demands Smarter Cooling Solutions

The Invisible Crisis Under Dubai's Sun

Recent investigations by FairSquare reveal a chilling paradox: While world leaders prepare to discuss climate solutions at COP28, migrant workers building the conference site face life-threatening heat exposure. With temperatures exceeding 40°C (104°F), many reported near-collapse experiences - "I thought I would die every second we were outside," one worker confessed.

Why Current Protections Fail

a. Outdated Bans: UAE's midday work ban (12:30-3pm) ignores scientific heat metrics like WBGT, leaving workers vulnerable 87% of daytime hours.

b. Deadline Pressures: 73% of site supervisors admit to overriding bans for "critical" projects like COP28 preparations.

c. Health Timebomb: Harvard research shows chronic heat exposure increases cardiovascular mortality by 230% among outdoor workers.
