00:14.439 --> 00:16.620
while enjoying the celebrations . Here

are some key points to keep in mind

00:18.760 --> 00:21.469
whether you're boating , swimming or

00:21.479 --> 00:23.670
just relaxing near the water . Always

00:23.680 --> 00:25.680
remember to wear your life jacket .

00:25.680 --> 00:27.847
It's a simple precaution that can save

00:27.847 --> 00:29.680
lives before heading out to your

00:29.680 --> 00:31.736
favorite lake or river . Be aware of

00:31.736 --> 00:34.229
the current water levels . They might

00:34.240 --> 00:36.240
be different from the last time you

visited . Changing levels can create

00:41.759 --> 00:43.870
outdoor activities in the summer heat

00:46.110 --> 00:47.832
sure you drink plenty of water

00:47.840 --> 00:49.840
throughout the day and take regular

00:49.840 --> 00:51.729
breaks in the shade to avoid heat

00:51.729 --> 00:53.900
related illnesses . And before you

00:53.909 --> 00:56.669
engage in any activity , take a moment

00:56.680 --> 00:59.189
to assess the risk , consider factors

00:59.200 --> 01:01.422
like weather conditions , your physical

01:01.422 --> 01:04.029
environment and the safety of your

01:04.040 --> 01:06.610
equipment . This small step can ensure

01:06.620 --> 01:09.040
you return to work safely after the

01:09.050 --> 01:11.589
holiday break . Let's all have a
