Train your workers to recognize the symptoms of heat related illness. Most common symptoms to look for when it comes to heat-related illnesses are headaches, dizziness, and profuse sweating. Major symptoms can lead to cramps, fainting or confusion. Having an outlined prevention plan in place is beneficial if someone begins to experience a heat-related illness.

CalOSHA is the agency that oversees these requirements.
