How to Create an OSHA-Compliant Heat Illness Prevention Plan [Step-by-Step]
Stop guessing. Follow this 5-step process to build a Written Program that passes inspection.
Step 1: Assign Responsibility
Name a specific Heat Safety Coordinator. If it is "everyone's job", it is no one's job.
Step 2: Map Your Water & Shade
Draw a site map. Where is the water? Where is the shade? Does it need to move as the sun moves?
Step 3: Define Emergency Protocols
Write down exactly what happens if someone collapses. Who calls 911? Who guides the ambulance?
Step 4: Training Log
Use HeatShield PRO to digitally log every training session.
