🌡️ Lost Productivity Due to Extreme Heat 🌡️ 2.5 Billion hours: is the amount of work lost annually due to heat exposure across the United States. This translates to about more than a $100 billion loss in labor productivity to the economy since high temperatures can severely reduce the efficiency and effectiveness of workers, leading to significant productivity losses. Whether it’s outdoor labor or indoor office work, extreme heat affects concentration, energy levels, and overall performance. With this in mind, FortyGuard is on a mission to diminish the economic impact of extreme urban heat by identifying its root cause. Our latest Temperature Dashboard allows users to remotely create urban heat maps with detailed insights that can help identify work zones experiencing extreme heat. Moreover, we provide tailored, actionable analytics that businesses and cities can use to optimize working conditions through improved cooling systems, strategic planning, and better resource management. This will help in reducing lost hours, enhance productivity, and maintain a robust and resilient workforce every summer. #ClimateTech #UrbanHeat #Productivity #SmartCities

🌡️Economic Impact of Extreme Heat 🌡️ More than $100 Billion: is the annual economic loss from workers' compensation claims due to extreme heat in the US. Over the past 10 years, high temperatures have significantly increased the number of heat-related injuries and illnesses among workers, especially those in outdoor or physically demanding jobs. As a result, worker compensations for these heat-related illnesses have skyrocketed which not only impact business finances but also affect overall economic productivity and workforce stability across the country. Therefore, FortyGuard is on a mission to diminish the economic impact of extreme urban heat by identifying its root cause. Our Temperature Dashboard allows users to remotely create urban heat maps with detailed insights that can help identify work zones experiencing extreme heat. By using our insights, companies can implement proactive measures such as optimized work schedules, improved cooling infrastructure, and better protective gear for workers. This will not only help in protecting the workforce but also reduce compensation claims and enhance overall productivity and safety. #ClimateTech #UrbanHeat #Sustainability #WorkplaceSafety

🌡️ Extreme Heat: A Growing Challenge We Can't Ignore 🌡️ $1 Billion: is the annual increase in health care costs every summer due to extreme heat in the United States. This staggering figure just highlights the sheer volume of impact that extreme heat has on public health.
