OSHA New Heat Illness Web Page

Though the weather hasn't been too hot this year, so far, and the first official day of summer was Jun 21, OSHA's new Heat Illness Campaign Web page was designed to assist employers and their employees.  The Heat Illness Web page provides educational materials in English and Spanish, as well as a curriculum to be used for workplace training.  Multiple copies of publications can be ordered from OSHA's Web site.  OSHA is also partnering with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) on weather service alerts to incorporate worker safety precautions when heat alerts are issued across the United States. NOAA is also including pertinent worker safety information on its Heat Watch Web page.
