Heat Safety ToolBy U.S. Department of Labor (DOL), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
When you’re working in the heat, safety comes first. With the OSHA Heat Safety Tool, you have vital safety information available whenever and wherever you need it – right on your mobile phone.
The App allows workers and supervisors to calculate the heat index for their worksite, and, based on the heat index, displays a risk level to outdoor workers. Then, with a simple “click,” you can get reminders about the protective measures that should be taken at that risk level to protect workers from heat-related illness-reminders about drinking enough fluids, scheduling rest breaks, planning for and knowing what to do in an emergency, adjusting work operations, gradually building up the workload for new workers, training on heat illness signs and symptoms, and monitoring each other for signs and symptoms of heat-related illness.
Working in full sunlight can increase heat index values by 15 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep this in mind and plan additional precautions for working in these conditions.
The OSHA Heat Tool is available in Spanish for Android and iPhone devices. To access the Spanish version on the iPhone, set the phone language setting to Spanish before downloading the app.
Stay informed and safe in the heat, check your risk level.
For more information about safety while working in the heat, see OSHA’s heat illness webpage, including new online guidance about using the heat index to protect workers.

We have been offering free audits of companies ISN-PICS-NCMS accounts. We do this looking for any gaps or areas that might need improvement. After the audit we then offer a one time clean up service at a fixed cost. We have discovered that people feel they will be paying for a service they don’t need and are hesitant in signing an agreement especially if they have no gaps. So, we waive the initial cost giving them a comfort level and its been a win-win for both. Please contact us today for your company’s free audit review.
