Abstract
Methods, systems and computer program products provide for a Risk Assessment Engine that receives body ambient temperature data captured by a sensor in contact with a person. The Risk Assessment Engine characterizes types of activities performed by the person during a time range associated with the body ambient temperature data. The Risk Assessment Engine determines a risk classification individualized for the person based on respective workloads and the corresponding allocations of work and rest experienced by the person during performance of the characterized types of activities.
