It’s hot outside but even hotter in a greenhouse. Kara Miskolczi works at Dutch Growers.
“Drinking lots of water and taking 30 minute breaks every hour out in the greenhouse,” she told CTV News.
“So, we’ve got to make sure we all stay safe.”
When it’s over 30 degrees outside, you can add up to 10 degrees on the inside.
“Well there are challenges,” manager Karen Van Duyvendyk explained.
“First and foremost we want to make sure that we are making a safe environment for our team and for customers. So our team rotates in and out of greenhouse every thirty minutes.”
