Alternating work and rest periods will be used in high potential conditions.

Under severe conditions, the duration of rest periods will be :increased as necessary. i Heavy work will be.performed during the cooler periods of the day when feasible. • Under heat stress conditions special attention will be. given toward assuring workers replace lost body fluids.
