Heat Stress

  Heat stress killed 13 California workers in 2005.  Does your company have a plan in place to make sure your workers don't become part of this gruesome statistic?

     The California Code of Regulations, Title 8, SS3395 says you have to plan in advance for heat spells and take the necessary steps to ensure your employees don't succumb to warmer weather.

     It includes ensuring your workers have plenty of clean, cool water, access to a shaded rest area, a communication plan, and written procedures.  CSTC has been working closely with Cal-OSHA to develop a new, FREE written Heat Stress Prevention Program.  It is currently being reviewed, and will be available on this page and from Cal-OSHA's website once given final approval.

   In the meantime...don't take chances with your employees' health and well-being.  Call CSTC at (661) 847-8300 for a consultation today!
