Every year, heat-related illnesses cause thousands of injuries and fatalities across North America. Whether indoors or out, high temperatures can pose serious risks to workers—especially if they’re not properly trained to recognize and respond to the warning signs.

So, the real question is: Are you and your employees prepared to prevent heat stress before it becomes a medical emergency?

Why Heat Stress Training Matters

Heat stress can affect anyone—especially those working in hot environments, doing physically demanding tasks, or wearing protective equipment. The impact of heat illness can be swift and severe:

• Heat-Related Illnesses – From heat rash and heat exhaustion to life-threatening heat stroke, symptoms can escalate quickly without proper intervention.
• Reduced Performance – Overheating workers are more prone to errors, slower reaction times, and decreased productivity.
• Regulatory Non-Compliance – Employers are responsible for protecting workers from heat hazards. Failing to act can lead to fines and liability.

But the good news? These risks are preventable—with the right training in place.
