## Description

This MCP server provides essential tools for industrial safety managers to manage thermal risk in high-temperature environments. It calculates the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) using `calculate_wbgt_risk`, determines mandatory recovery cycles with `get_work_rest_schedule`, estimates fluid intake via `estimate_hydration_needs`, and adjusts thermal load based on attire using `evaluate_clothing_impact`. It helps prevent heat exhaustion by providing data-driven work-rest regimens and hydration plans.

## Tools

### calculate_wbgt_risk
Determine the environmental heat stress level using the WBGT metric

### estimate_hydration_needs
Calculate the minimum fluid intake required to prevent dehydration

### evaluate_clothing_impact
Adjust the perceived heat stress based on the insulating properties of work clothing

### get_work_rest_schedule
Provide a mandatory work-rest cycle based on heat stress and worker characteristics

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the heat stress level if the air temperature is 35°C, humidity is 60%, wet bulb is 28°C, and black globe is 32°C?
```

**Response:** 
```
The calculated WBGT value is 29.4, which falls into the High heat stress category.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
A worker is performing heavy work in High heat stress. They are not acclimatized. What is the required work-rest schedule?
```

**Response:** 
```
For heavy work in High heat stress without acclimatization, the mandatory schedule is 20 minutes of work followed by 40 minutes of rest.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much water should a worker drink during a 4-hour shift with moderate work in High heat stress?
```

**Response:** 
```
The worker requires a total of 3.2 liters of water, with a recommended intake of 0.8 liters per hour every 20 minutes.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this tool help with worker safety?**
It uses `calculate_wbgt_risk` to assess environmental danger and `get_work_rest_schedule` to mandate specific rest periods, ensuring workers stay within safe physiological limits.

**Can I account for different types of work intensity?**
Yes, the `estimate_hydration_needs` and `get_work_rest_schedule` tools allow you to input metabolic intensity levels ranging from light to very heavy.

**Does it consider the impact of protective gear?**
Yes, you can use `evaluate_clothing_impact` to adjust the perceived heat stress based on whether workers are wearing breathable, standard, or heavy protective clothing.
