Dehydration

[scoobydo79]

What do you all drink in the hot weather? Is plain water enough? Tablet or sachets of electrolyte added to it? Nice cup of hot tea lol?

Water.
The rest is expensive nonsense.

More water than usual. Electrolyte sachet or two if you want. If not, then use a bit more salt than normal, sea salt being the best.
If the colour of your pee is a light yellow you are likely fine.

Not a believer in the water washing all the essential salts out of your body theory then clash?

In really hot weather like in the southeast now and next week, can you cut off as you feel it's unsafe to continue? Would you be disciplined for that?

As soon as I get up, I have half a pint of water with a good pinch of baja sea salt. A small amount of water with my breakfast half an hour later, then, as I’m on my walk, around two pints of water over a four hour period.

In theory, your life is in your own hands every day on delivery - Dynamic Risk Assessment. Don't wait for your manager to step in to save you from working yourself to death because the most you'll get is a briefing about remaining aware of the heat.

Two years ago when there was wildfires, we were told to stop when the temp hit 35c.
I think it was 34c all day
