California’s Heat Illness Prevention Regulation

California’s heat illness prevention regulation requires employers with outdoor workers to:

  • Develop and implement an effective written heat illness prevention plan that includes emergency response procedures.
  • Train all employees and supervisors on heat illness prevention.
  • Provide free, fresh, pure, suitably cool water so that each worker can drink at least one quart of water per hour. Encourage workers to do so.

Do you know everything you need to know about:

  • Heat Illness
  • Providing shade for employees
  • Training employees on heat illness
  • Providing the Cal/OSHA prescribed amount of water to employees
