OSHA’s 2013 Campaign to Prevent Heat Illness in Outdoor Workers shares this simple message: Water. Rest. Shade.
The agency offers a multitude of resources, information, drop-in articles and art to help employers educate employees heat dangers and preventive measures. You can also find a
new bilingual information sheet about the campaign and
Portuguese-language wallet cards, as well as a
Spanish-language website. And don't forget about the smartphone app the enables on-the-go to checks of the heat index and necessary precautions based on that heat index. Look for the free download in your smartphone’s app store.
