Refrigerator for humans provides relief during heat wave in Japan

During a severe summer heatwave in Japan, workers are utilizing a newly introduced cooling device known as a "human refrigerator" to combat the high temperatures. Isao Tabuchi, an employee who commutes by bicycle, reported experiencing dizziness from the suffocating heat before using the company's new acquisition.

After stepping inside the cooling unit, Tabuchi noted an immediate physical recovery, describing the relief as incredible almost as soon as the device is utilized. The introduction of this technology highlights innovative workplace adaptations being adopted to help employees cope with extreme summer weather conditions in the country.
