What kind of weather will stipulate that you don’t have to go to work?

There is no direct rule on what kind of weather it is not necessary to go to work. Generally speaking, when various meteorological disasters reach red warning, government departments will require all agencies, enterprises and institutions to take a holiday. Red warning signals are forecasts issued by the meteorological department and other relevant departments for disasters or potential dangers such as typhoons, heavy rains, high temperatures, droughts, heavy fog, cold waves, and safety.

Defense work during red warning signals:

1. The government and relevant departments should carry out typhoon prevention and emergency response work in accordance with their responsibilities.

2. Stop large-scale gatherings indoors and outdoors, and suspend work, classes, operations, markets, and businesses (except for special industries).

3. Ships returning to the port to take shelter from the storm must take active measures according to the situation and properly arrange for personnel to stay behind or move to a safe area.

4. Reinforce or dismantle structures that are easily blown by the wind. Personnel should stay in a safe and wind-proof place. When the center of a typhoon passes, the wind will decrease or remain stationary for a period of time. Remember that strong winds will blow suddenly. If there is an attack, you should continue to stay in a safe place to take shelter, and people in dangerous buildings should be moved away in time.

5. Relevant areas should pay attention to preventing flash floods and geological disasters that may be caused by heavy precipitation.

Red Alert Precautions

You should find a safe parking area during heavy rain. Avoid parking near large trees, billboards, dangerous walls, high voltage lines and low-lying areas.

If there is an emergency, remember the common sense of driving safely in heavy rain. On heavy rainy days, even if the wiper speed is turned to the maximum, the rain will affect the view inside the car. Therefore, while reducing the vehicle speed, turning on the low beam and position lights is a necessary guarantee for safety. If the visibility is less than 200 meters when driving on the highway, Fog lights also need to be added.

If it is too late to move, quickly move to the nearest high ground, building roof, flood shelter, etc. When heavy rains in mountainous areas cause mudslides or landslides, you must not evacuate downstream.
