Lesson Overview

1.14 – Heat Stress, Cold Stress, and Environmental Safety: Extreme temperatures can threaten both comfort and survival, making environmental awareness a key part of OSHA compliance. Heat stress may cause cramps, exhaustion, or heatstroke, while cold stress can lead to frostbite or hypothermia. Employers must monitor environmental conditions, provide hydration breaks, and rotate tasks to reduce exposure. Employees should recognize early symptoms—like dizziness, heavy sweating, or numbness—and report them immediately. Wearing climate-appropriate clothing and pacing work intensity prevents overexertion. Shaded rest areas, temperature logs, and acclimatization plans help maintain balance in harsh conditions. Supervisors should train teams on first-aid responses and proper use of cooling or heating gear. Environmental safety extends beyond temperature, including ventilation, air quality, and noise. Proactive management ensures resilience against weather extremes and keeps workers safe year-round. Protecting the body from climate stress preserves energy, alertness, and long-term well-being on the job.
