THIS POSTER IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE ALL-ON-ONE POSTER. IT MUST BE ORDERED IN ADDITION TO THE ALL-ON-ONE POSTER.
Many workers spend some part of their working day in a hot environment. Workers in the industries listed below often face hot working conditions that pose special hazards to the safety and health of these employees.
California issued "emergency regulations" on August 22, 2005 after several workers died from apparent heat-related illnesses. Don't take a chance! Be sure your employees and supervisors know the signs, symptoms and dangers of heat related illnesses. Our poster also explains what to do to help prevent heat illnesses & provides an area to write in "emergency" phone numbers.
