As high temperatures continue across California, Cal/OSHA is reminding employers to take proactive steps to protect workers from heat illness at both indoor and outdoor worksites. 

Employers should confirm that required heat illness prevention measures are in place, including access to drinking water, shade or cool-down areas, rest breaks, and employee training. Outdoor employers should ensure shade is available when temperatures exceed 80 degrees and be prepared for additional high-heat procedures when temperatures reach or exceed 95 degrees. Indoor employers should also review applicable requirements, which may apply when temperatures reach 82 degrees in covered workplaces.
