Site Heat Plan and Monitoring

Plan is site-specific, accessible to supervisors, and reflects current work activities and weather conditions.
A designated competent person is responsible for monitoring temperature, humidity, workload, and worker condition.
Documented monitoring is performed before and during the shift when heat risk increases.
Escalation thresholds for additional controls are defined for elevated heat conditions.

Water and Hydration

Water is present at or near the work location and is not restricted by access barriers or long travel distance.
Dispensers, coolers, or bottles are sanitary, covered, and in good condition.
Water is positioned so workers do not need to wait for permission or travel excessive distance to hydrate.
Supply is sufficient for the number of workers and expected heat exposure duration.

Shade, Rest Breaks, and Work Practices

Shade is large enough to accommodate the expected number of workers and is located close enough for practical use.
Shade is not blocked by materials, equipment, or unsafe conditions and provides meaningful relief from direct sun.
Break frequency and duration increase when heat, workload, or PPE burden increases.
High-exertion tasks are adjusted, rotated, or scheduled to reduce continuous heat load.

Acclimatization and Worker Readiness

Workers new to the site, new to hot work, or returning after an absence are tracked for increased monitoring.
Workload is increased gradually for workers who are not yet acclimatized.
Headache, dizziness, nausea, confusion, cramps, or fainting triggers immediate intervention and evaluation.
Workers are observed for signs of heat stress and are not left unmonitored during high-risk tasks.

Training, Emergency Response, and High-Heat Procedures

Training covers hydration, rest, shade, acclimatization, and early symptom reporting.
Emergency response includes calling for medical assistance, moving the worker to shade, and cooling measures.
Additional controls such as increased breaks, closer observation, and modified work are activated during high-risk conditions.
Crew can quickly provide the exact location and contact information to emergency responders.
