Heat and Cold Stress

Heat stroke can kill, and extreme cold can cause frostbite and hypothermia. This course teaches workers to recognize the warning signs, stay hydrated and protected, and adapt the work when it is too hot or too cold.

Who it’s for

Outdoor workers and those who work near heat sources or in the cold (foundries, kitchens, cold rooms, construction sites), and their supervisors.
