Employee training on working in the heat may reduce risk of heat illness
by raising awareness of heat safety. OSHA has developed “A Guide for
Employers to Carry Out Heat Safety Training for Workers” which
provides step-by-step instructions on how to engage employees in
participatory heat safety training on three topics: 1) health effects of
heat, 2)how to respond to symptoms, and 3) preventing heat illness.
The training can be delivered in one, 45-minute session or three,
15-minute sessions.
