OSHA Focuses on Worker
Heat Hazards
 |
With the official start of summer, OSHA is
urging employers across the country to protect workers from heat-related
illnesses and hazards. While workers in construction, agriculture, and
landscaping are often exposed to excessive heat, so are workers in kitchens,
foundries, warehouses, and other indoor settings. OSHA offers guidance on how
to keep workers cool and healthy whether they are exposed to indoor or outdoor heat hazards.
