Heat Stress Is Getting Worse: What OSHA’s New Focus Means for Your Crew

Temperatures are rising—and so is OSHA's attention on heat-related illness. New initiatives and proposed regulations mean now’s the time to get ahead of compliance.

Why Heat Illness Is a Serious Threat:
Heat stroke, dehydration, and fatigue don’t just lower productivity—they can be fatal. Heat is one of the fastest-growing workplace hazards.

What OSHA Is Doing:
OSHA has launched a National Emphasis Program (NEP) on heat, targeting high-risk industries for inspections. Employers must now show proactive steps in preventing heat illness.

How to Stay Compliant:

• Implement a written Heat Illness Prevention Plan

• Train supervisors and workers

• Monitor temperature, humidity, and rest breaks
