Fasting for Those Who Work Hard

Question
Is it permissible for workers in strenuous professions, and those who work in a bakery or under the sun, to break their fast during Ramadan?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Hard work does not permit breaking the fast, unless it reaches a level where one fears for their life or mental capacity due to fasting. In that case, breaking the fast is permitted, and one must make up for it on another day, and God knows best.
