MANILA, Philippines — Traffic enforcers and street sweepers of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority are getting an additional 30-minute “heat stroke break” to protect them from illnesses this summer season’s searing heat until end-May.

 

MMDA Chairman Atty. Romando Artes has signed a memorandum circular re-implementing the "heat stroke break" policy to protect field personnel from heat exhaustion, heat stroke and heat cramps due to severe heat wave.

 

According to Artes, under the policy, on-duty traffic enforcers and street sweepers are allowed to leave their posts in shifts and take a 30-minute break to rest.
