    AbstractThe Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare and the Heatstroke STUDY 2008 & 2010 regarding the characteristics of laborers who suffered and died from heatstroke demonstrated the involvement of more laborers who worked in construction, from July to August and at around 3 p.m. Also, more laborers who worked at around 11 a.m. got heatstroke, and there were more laborers who died from it within 1 week from starting to work. The results showed that the heat environment and the time and period when laborers started to be exposed to a hot environment adversely effect the development of heatstroke and subsequent heatstroke-related death. It is important to estimate and take measures against a hot environment and to make time to be acclimated to a hot environment.
