The OSHA Heat Illness Prevention campaign educates employers and workers on the dangers of working in the heat. OSHA’s revised Heat Illness Prevention campaign webpage has resources on heat illness prevention and first aid, employer responsibility to protect workers from heat, and information for workers who work in hot and humid conditions. These resources include a poster, pamphlet, PSAs, videos, and infographics on how to keep workers safe from heat.
At the core of every effective safety and health program is a systematic process for finding and fixing workplace hazards. Finding and fixing hazards in the workplace is an ongoing process that helps better identify and correct hazards before they cause injuries or illnesses so that workers go home, after every shift, safe and sound.
There are a variety of ways to identify hazards in your workplace, including reviewing records such as the OSHA 300 Log of Work- Related Injuries and Illnesses. Visit the Safe + Sound webpage to learn how to find and fix hazards in your workplace and download resources, such as the Hazard Identification Worksheet – Hazard Information.
