At 6:00 a.m. on June 12 in Beijing, it was already bright.

After washing, Wang Qiang, who is in his 40s, put on his sunscreen clothes, sun hat and sunscreen mask, rode his electric bike to the nearby Dongzhimen subway station, and opened the takeaway rider app on his mobile phone. Once the prompt tone of "You have a new delivery order" sounds, he will go to pick up meals, start delivery, and shuttle through the urban jungle.

The high temperature in recent days has made these outdoor workers face more challenges.

According to the Central Meteorological Observatory, on June 11, the high temperature weather of 35-39 ℃ occurred in Hebei, central and southern Beijing, Tianjin, central and southern Shanxi, central Shaanxi, Henan, Shandong, northern Anhui and the Tianshan Mountains along Xinjiang. Shijiazhuang reached 41.2 ℃, becoming the second provincial capital city after Haikou this year to break through 40 ℃. On the 12th, the Central Meteorological Station continued to issue an orange high temperature warning. It is expected that the large-scale high temperature weather in the north will continue until June 14.

On June 12, just after 10 o'clock, the ground was scorched by the sun.

Lin Chao, the express delivery clerk, rode an electric bike to an office building in Dongzhimen, and quickly began to sort parcels. "There are many companies upstairs, and they should be sent together.".

Lin Chao kept bending down and packing separately. Although he wore the quick drying overalls issued by the company, sweat still poured down, his clothes were soaked quickly, and his face was red from the sun. He said: "Last year, the company gave us a raise in wages and some heatstroke prevention products in hot weather. I hope we can earn more in hot weather this year."

In hot weather, all kinds of cold drinks are sold well. At 9:30 a.m. on June 12, Jiang Yao, the delivery clerk, was carrying more than 20 cups of milk tea and other elevators to deliver these drinks to a company in the office building.

He said that recently, there have been a lot of orders for milk tea and coffee. Some people ordered more than 20 popsicles in the convenience store. When delivering the order, he took "extremely meticulous" insulation measures and "worried about the popsicle melting".

Last year, his distribution platform took various measures such as "weight subsidies" and "time subsidies" for hot weather. He hopes to still get these "subsidies" this year.

"Making more money" is their greatest expectation. Liang Li, senior engineer of the Public Weather Service Center of the China Meteorological Administration, warned that working at high temperatures could easily lead to the imbalance of human body temperature regulation, increasing the risk of heatstroke.

In recent days, Wang Qiang's colleagues had sunstroke symptoms, so they went to the shade to relax. "Everyone hopes to hold on and not fall".

Relevant enterprises are doing a good job in ensuring workers under high temperature.

According to different weather conditions in different places, Hungleme distributed two versions of cool bags. In extremely hot areas, the "Blue Knight" will also receive sun protection clothing.

The relevant person in charge of Meituan's distribution and rider support department said that in special weather, Meituan's distribution and support team would launch an emergency mechanism to provide riders with distribution time compensation, eliminate the bad comments caused by the weather, and dynamically adjust the distribution radius to reduce the time that riders are exposed to the outdoors. Meituan takeout will invest in the special subsidy of "high temperature care fund" to increase the labor income of riders under high temperature in a more precise and diversified way.

According to the relevant documents of Beijing, the high-temperature allowance is paid in June August every year. At present, the high temperature allowance for outdoor workers is no less than 180 yuan per person per month; For personnel working in indoor workplaces above 33 ℃ (including 33 ℃), the high temperature allowance shall not be less than 120 yuan per person per month; High temperature allowance is a part of workers' wages and should be included in the total wages, but not in the minimum wage standard.

The Beijing Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, the Beijing Municipal Commission of Health, the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Disease Control and Prevention, the Beijing Municipal Federation of Trade Unions and other departments form a joint inspection team to supervise and inspect the employers with high-temperature jobs. Focus on the inspection of the employing units with relatively concentrated outdoor workers in construction, power, airport, landscaping, scenic spots, etc., and highlight the posts of environmental sanitation workers, online distributors, couriers, security guards, tour guides, livelihood facilities guarantee, etc. Through coordination and linkage, further urge employers to implement the main responsibility of heatstroke prevention and fully protect the physical and mental health of workers.
