title = "Physical working performance in cold thermal environment: A short review",
abstract = "Exposure to cold thermal environment is a significant risk factor in industrial activities,influencing the human physical performance. The aim of this work is to contribute with a short reviewon physical working performance of humans exposed to cold thermal environment, by classifying differentstudies conducted in that area. Using appropriated keywords and expressions, a short review ofEnglish articles has been done, by searching electronic databases. Only articles related to worker{\textquoteright}s physicalperformance while exposed to cold thermal environment were included. Ten experimental articles wereincluded. The number of participants varied from 6 to 30 workers. The findings of this short review indicatethat moderate and severe cold environment in general reduces physical performances.",
