Plant and Pest Advisory – Kate Brown – 7/21/24
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has created an
EmployerChecklist for Outdoor and Indoor Heat-Related Injury and Illness Prevention
which may be utilized to identify sources of heat hazards in the workplace and respond effectively.
Section1 of the checklist is designed to help employers recognize job-related heat risks while Section
2 explores preparedness for heat-related injuries and illnesses. Additional OSHA resources on
heat-illness prevention are included on the last page of the checklist. See checklist in attachments.
