Who needs Heat Illness Prevention training?

Anyone who works outdoors or in hot indoor conditions, and the supervisors who watch over them.

What the rules require

There is no federal OSHA heat standard yet (a rule was proposed in 2024 and is still pending), so employers rely on the general duty to protect workers from recognized hazards and on state heat rules in places such as Washington, Maryland, California and Oregon. This core course teaches the national fundamentals; the state editions add each state rule.

1

Know the signs of heat illness and what to do

2

Water, rest, shade and acclimatization

3

A plan for emergencies and for supervisors to act

Take this core course together with the state edition for the state where your people work.
