Headline Topic: Keeping Your Cool (Ten suggestions to employers for helping workers stay cool in hot workplaces)

-What should I drink?: drink about one cup of cool water every 15 to 20 minutes / *Stay Away from Alcohol, coffee, tea and caffeinated soft drinks, they contribute to dehydration
-How do I adjust to the heat? : Assign a lighter workload and longer rest periods for the first five to seven days of intense heat. This process needs to start over when a worker returns from vacation or absence due to illness or injury.
-What to wear? : Wear lightweight. Loose-fitting, light-colored clothing. Workers should change their clothing if it gets completely saturated with sweat.
-Where do I go for shelter? : When you feel over heated go to places where there is good air flow and shelter from the sun. Good air flow increases evaporation and cooling of the skin. Stagnant atmospheric conditions and poor air quality can induce heart -related illnesses.
-Dangerously too hot? How do you know? : Look for signs of heat stroke which include; severe headache, mental confusion/loss of consciousness, flushed face and hot dry skin, heat cramps, skin rashes, swelling and loss of mental and physical work capacity. / * Ensure you have first-aid workers that can recognize and treat the signs of heat stress / *Seek medical attention immediately if worker had stopped sweating
-Fit for the Sun? : Consider a worker's physical condition when determining fitness to work in hot environments. Obesity, lack of conditioning, pregnancy and inadequate rest can increase susceptibility to heat stress. / * Certain medical conditions, such as heart conditions or treatments like low-sodium diets and some medications, increase the risk from heat exposure. Seek medical advice in those cases.
-How do I schedule around the heat? : Schedule heavy work for cooler parts of the day and use appropriate protective clothing.
-Do you have your buddy’s back? : It is important to work as a team. Check in with each other on an hourly basis to ensure that the people you are / working with are adjusting and responding to the heat appropriately.

One benefit of using your newsletter as a promotional tool is that you can reuse content from other marketing materials, such as press releases, market studies, and reports.
While your main goal of distributing a newsletter might be to sell your product or service, the key to a successful newsletter is making it useful to your readers.
A great way to add useful content to your newsletter is to develop and write your own articles, or include a calendar of upcoming events or a special offer that promotes a new product.
You can also research articles or find “filler” articles by accessing the World Wide Web. You can write about a variety of topics but try to keep your articles short.
Much of the content you put in your newsletter can also be used for your Web site. Microsoft Publisher offers a simple way to convert your newsletter to a Web publication. So, when you’re finished writing your newsletter, convert it to a Web site and post it.

This story can fit 75-125 words.
Selecting pictures or graphics is an important part of adding content to your newsletter.
Think about your article and ask yourself if the picture supports or enhances the message you’re trying to convey. Avoid selecting images that appear to be out of context.
Microsoft Publisher includes thousands of clip art images from which you can choose and import into your newsletter. There are also several tools you can use to draw shapes and symbols.
Once you have chosen an image, place it close to the article. Be sure to place the caption of the image near the image.

This story can fit 100-150 words.
The subject matter that appears in newsletters is virtually endless. You can include stories that focus on current technologies or innovations in your field.
You may also want to note business or economic trends, or make predictions for your customers or clients.
If the newsletter is distributed internally, you might comment upon new procedures or improvements to the business. Sales figures or earnings will show how your business is growing.
Some newsletters include a column that is updated every issue, for instance, an advice column, a book review, a letter from the president, or an editorial. You can also profile new employees or top customers or vendors.

This story can fit 175-225 words.
If your newsletter is folded and mailed, this story will appear on the back. So, it’s a good idea to make it easy to read at a glance.
A question and answer session is a good way to quickly capture the attention of readers. You can either compile questions that you’ve received since the last edition or you can summarize some generic questions that are frequently asked about your organization.
A listing of names and titles of managers in your organization is a good way to give your newsletter a personal touch. If your organization is small, you may want to list the names of all employees.
If you have any prices of standard products or services, you can include a listing of those here. You may want to refer your readers to any other forms of communication that you’ve created for your organization.
You can also use this space to remind readers to mark their calendars for a regular event, such as a breakfast meeting for vendors every third Tuesday of the month, or a biannual charity auction.
If space is available, this is a good place to insert a clip art image or some other graphic.
