Water. Rest. Shade. These three words can help prevent heat-related illnesses and injuries. Employers should provide cool drinking water, allow frequent breaks in shaded or air-conditioned areas, and gradually adjust workers to hot conditions. Use DWC's free heat safety publications in your next safety meeting or toolbox talk:
• Fluid Replacement Fact Sheet (English/Spanish).
• Heat Illness and Injury Prevention Fact Sheet (English/Spanish).
