In the sentence
Ivana had s splitting headache yesterday evening because she had worked in the sun all day and she hadn't been wearing a hat.
Is it correct to say
Ivana had s splitting headache yesterday evening because she had been working in the sun all day and she hadn't been wearing a hat?
 
She is not working in the sun anymore. That is an action that is finished.

There is a typo in post #1 (two times).
 
Ivana had a splitting headache yesterday evening because she had been working in the sun all day and she hadn't been wearing a hat?
That's possible.
