Program Description:
Heat Stress Prevention
Join us as Tim shares this timely information about what employers can do to prevent heat stress. He will discuss how to understand the signs of heat stress, how to deal with acclimatization in different high heat jobs and conditions, and how to handle personal protective equipment.
As we lead into the summer months, join us as we learn from an Oregon OSHA compliance officer who has experience managing crews in hot tropical environments with layers of PPE as well as investigated a heat related fatality.
This is your opportunity to ask questions about implementation of this new heat rule.
