The return of the midnight sun means that many of us will take advantage of the great outdoors between now and the end of August. Whether you work outdoors or simply enjoy the sun for recreational purposes, you need to consider your health and safety when exposed to the sun.
If you are an employer, make sure you are educated on sun safety and protection from heat illness.
