Hi All,
Wonder if you can help because at the moment I'm really livid. Our office is currently just over 30 degrees, and being 26 weeks pregnant I'm finding it stifling (we also have a 28 week and a 32 week pregnant woman who are also suffering!). I have asked my boss to hire in some air conditioning units and he said no, because of the cost.
Does anyone have any idea whether I have a right to insist that they do something about this? I know that an employer has to do what they can to reduce any risks to an expectant mother's health/safety but does this include excessively high temperatures?
I'm so annoyed and any ammunition will help.
Thanks
