Many of us would enjoy working outdoors, but both hot and cold weather conditions can create risks. Some people have a tolerance for the heat, but they can still suffer because of the sun. Frequent exposure to the sun can cause skin cancer. In the United States, farmers are three times more likely than the average citizen to get skin cancer. Extreme cold can also damage a person's skin. Some of us love winter, but even if you're the kind of person who enjoys the cold, caring for animals every day in freezing weather can be unappealing, as well as risky. The majority of us would probably be much happier working inside, away from the cold.
