Description

This publication describes the health risks associated with working in extreme heat and cold situations, and suggests reasonable solutions for workplaces. It is intended primarily for people who work outdoors in areas such as road paving, construction, forestry, agriculture, ranching, oil and gas jobs, greenhouse or horticultural work, power line maintenance, and outdoor municipal work. This guidance may also be helpful to workplaces that have hot indoor environments such as kitchens, bakeries, pizza parlours, steam presses, laundries, or dry cleaning businesses. Cold indoor workplaces include those that have walk-in freezers, meat processing, or cold storage facilities.
