Question

Is there a temperature that it is legally to hot to work?

Answer 1

well yes there is at 105-100 degreese F you might get Heat crash or get to sweaty and get Scasipella

Answer 2

companies probably have different policies for that.

Likely is, the guy working in an air conditioned office on a 105 degree day will still have to show up while your grass guy might not be able to make it.  

Answer 3

In some countries, yes. In the UK the minimum working temperature is 16 degrees C but there's no set maximum, just that the working conditions must be "comfortable". There isn't really a definition of comfortable though. At the very least, your employer should provide you with a fan if you're too hot.

Depends on your job as well. My father occasionally had to work in temperatures over 70 degrees C (obviously wearing a heat suit) but not for more than an hour at a time.

Answer 4

I'm sure that companies, and maybe even governments, have rules and/or laws against working in extreme weather. The risk of dehydration and heat exhaustion is too high in extreme heat along with combination of major activities.
