We all know with summer comes the heat! It's so important to be aware of the dangers of heat and how to keep safe.
Elderly people (that is, people aged 65 years and older) are more prone to heat stress than younger people for several reasons:

Sales prevention issues show up in businesses of all sizes and in all industries—and are almost always unintentional consequences of internal policies put into place for the good of the company. Any rule that you have that’s good for the company’s internal operations, but bad for your customer, is something that is causing sales prevention.
While internal policies, procedures, and systems are important and keep the business running efficiently, they may actually inhibit sales by making it harder for your customers to get the help they need, or for your employees to help the customers.

There’s no questioning it—the COVID-19 pandemic and the widespread work-from-home movement has created a massive culture shift that will leave permanent marks on corporate culture.
A company’s culture is the organization’s values, ideals, attitudes, and goals, so it’s really no surprise that it’s shifted due to recent events. Especially since many of us, as individuals, have re-evaluated our priorities and life goals in the last year.
