Course Description:

​As temperatures continue to rise, OHNs need to have current knowledge on how to prevent  illnesses, accidents, and lost productivity as a result of heat stress. While there are several position statements and drafted rules addressing heat stress, a framework for these responsibilities is needed for both OHNs and their employers. In this session, Dr. Bernard will share the key elements of heat stress management, the role of the OHN when encountering this hazard, and how to assist employers in writing a basic heat stress management program. 

Learning Objectives:

1. Demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of key elements of heat stress management
2. Articulate the role of an OHN in heat stress management for a particular employer
3. Assist an employer in writing a basic heat stress management program

Learning Outcomes:

At completion of this webinar 85% of learners will increase their knowledge of extreme heat and gain the tools to operationalize the elements of heat stress management.
