Heat Stress Exposure Control Policy

BENEFIT

So if your workers work outside in the summer or in hot indoor environments such as kilns or bakeries, your company should have a heat stress exposure policy.

HOW TO USE THIS TOOL

You can adapt this Model Exposure Control Policy for Heat Stress based on the specific circumstances of your workplace and the requirements of your jurisdiction’s OHS laws.
