Heat stress occurs when your body takes in more heat than it can get rid of. On a construction site, metabolic heat + environmental conditions + clothing/PPE can increase heat storage in the body and create serious health risks.
💧Hydrate regularly
🧊Take breaks in cool or shaded areas
👕Wear appropriate, breathable clothing when possible
🌡️Plan heavy work around the heat
👷Watch out for your coworkers and speak up when something doesn't feel right
Don't wait for an emergency to take heat seriously. Prevention starts before the first symptom.
Stay cool. Stay hydrated. Stay safe.
