months in each Gregorian year and five daytime hours, starting at eleven in the morning and ending at four in the afternoon.  5) Text of the Recommendation: Sensitize employers and employees on the content of Resolution No. (3) of 2013 on Banning Work During Noon Time in open places for the months of July and August, and the conditions to be met, mainly since the Resolution concerns working outdoors under direct sunlight, and not indoors or in shaded places. Summary of the Ministry of Labor’s response: The authority stated that based on extrapolation and analysis of the hourly recorded temperatures of one day for some days in the months of July and August, it was found that the temperature begins to rise to the maximum levels between 10:00 am until 4:00 pm after which it starts to decrease or stabilize for a short period.  Summary of the Ministry of Labor’s response: The concerned authority stated that the substance of the recommendation is realized in practice, as the Ministry carries out intensive awareness campaigns on this matter to acquaint employers and workers with all the details contained in the Resolution. This is accomplished by presenting lectures and video clips and providing educational publications to the expatriate communities in their local languages, as well as covering the content of the Resolution and the ways to prevent the risks of summer in the media. It also added that after careful tracking, studying and analysis of the temperatures recorded in the past years during the months of June to September, it was observed that the temperatures recorded during the months of July and August are the highest during the year and pose adverse health effects. Therefore, the authority is in the opinion that it is unnecessary to extend the duration of implementing the decision and the current ban hours, and that preventing workers from working under direct sunlight and open places for a period of (4) hours during the months of July and August of each year is sufficient to provide protection, although this does not mean that there is no danger for the rest of the summer. Here, implementing engineering and administrative measures and methods during the remaining periods controls these risks. 6) Text of the Recommendation and Summary of the Response of the Concerned Authority: Examine the economic effects and consequences on business owners resulting from the implementation of Resolution No. (3) of 2013 on Banning Work during Noon Time in open places for the months of July and August, and conduct a study on the mechanism for compensating them for damages, as the case may be. 32
