Introduction: Heat stress in workplaces cause multiple problems such as thermal stresses, thermal discomfort and in more severe cases may lead to accidents and diseases related to excessive heat. The aim of this study was to evaluate heat stress adopting WBGT Index in some small enterprise in Qom city and also to examine the relationship between WBGT and physiological indices. . Material and Method: This Cross-sectional study was conducted in 25 small workshops in Qom city including of 10 indoor and 15 outdoor workshops in August 2012. WBGT were measured according to the ISO7243 standard. The physiological responses including pulse rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure were measured among 25 workers (one from each workshop). .Result: ...
