[Audio] We are here to discuss heat illness prevention. Heat illness is a serious problem that can occur when people are exposed to high temperatures, especially when they are physically exerting themselves. It's important to know the signs and symptoms of heat stress, so you can take action to prevent it. Our training will cover the basics of heat illness prevention, including strategies to stay cool and hydrated, how to recognize the signs of heat stress, and what to do if someone is experiencing symptoms. This training is informative and meets the requirements of California Code of Regulations T8 3395 & 3396..

[Audio] 1. Shade and Cool-down Areas: These areas are designed to provide employees with a place to rest and cool down during hot weather. They are critical to preventing heat illnesses such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Employees should be aware of the location of these areas and how to access them. 2. Acclimatization to Heat: Employees must be trained on how to gradually become accustomed to hot weather. This training will help them avoid the risk of heat illnesses and increase their comfort during hot workdays. 3. High-Heat Procedures: These procedures are designed to help employees work safely in extreme heat conditions. Employees should be familiar with these procedures and follow them to prevent heat-related illnesses and injuries. In addition to these three areas, we will also be discussing emergency response procedures in case of heat-related illnesses or injuries. Our goal is to ensure that our employees are well-prepared to handle extreme heat conditions and to prevent any heat-related incidents..

[Audio] We have created a presentation that addresses the requirements of California Code of Regulations T8 3395 & 3396. The training goals of this presentation include understanding heat illness, learning about prevention strategies, recognizing the signs and symptoms of heat illness, and knowing the heat illness emergency procedures..

[Audio] We will discuss heat illness and the risk factors that can lead to it. Heat illness occurs when the body is unable to effectively cool down due to prolonged exposure to high temperatures and humidity. Some individuals may be more sensitive to high temperatures due to personal risk factors such as dehydration, direct sun exposure, and intense physical activity. It's important to understand these risk factors and take steps to prevent heat illness..

[Audio] This training will address heat illness prevention in order to ensure the safety and well-being of our employees. Heat illness can present in mild, moderate, or severe forms. Mild illness may include symptoms such as rash or cramps, while moderate illness may include heat exhaustion, which can be indicated by symptoms such as headache, dizziness, or fainting, weakness and wet skin, irritability or confusion, thirst, nausea, or vomiting. Severe illness, such as heat stroke, can be indicated by symptoms such as being confused, or unable to think clearly, stopping sweating, seizures, loss of consciousness, or a sudden dry skin, with a high body temperature of plus 104F. It is crucial that our employees are aware of the signs and symptoms of heat illness and are able to take the necessary precautions to prevent it. Our training will meet the requirements of California Code of Regulations T8 3395 & 3396 and will be conducted in August, 2024..

[Audio] We are here to discuss heat illness prevention strategies. Our training program will focus on the requirements of California Code of Regulations T8 3395 & 3396. This training aims to protect the health and safety of our employees during hot weather. The California Code of Regulations T8 3395 & 3396 mandates that employers provide their employees with training on heat illness prevention. This training includes information on the symptoms and prevention of heat illness. We consider this training to be a crucial part of our company's commitment to the health and well-being of our employees. By providing this training, we can help prevent heat-related illnesses and keep our employees healthy and productive..

[Audio] To ensure the safety and well-being of our employees, we recommend that they have access to free potable water throughout their shift. It is important to drink water regularly as thirst may be an early sign of dehydration. In case of any interruptions in the availability of drinking water, employees should immediately notify their supervisor. By following these guidelines, we can prevent heat illness and ensure the safety and well-being of our employees..

[Audio] Discussing the importance of shade and cool-down areas in preventing heat illness among R-C-C-B employees. All R-C-C-B employees have access to shade and cool-down areas in both outdoor and indoor work areas. In outdoor work areas, shade can help prevent heat illness when temperatures get above 80F. We encourage you to notify your supervisor if you have any concerns related to shade areas. In indoor work areas, all R-C-C-B employees will have access to cool-down areas that are kept at a temperature below 82 degrees farenheit. Employee breakrooms serve as cool-down areas, and we remind you that these areas must be blocked from direct sunlight, large enough to accommodate the number of employees on rest breaks, and located near the work areas. By having access to shade and cool-down areas, R-C-C-B employees can prevent heat illness and maintain their health and well-being in the workplace..

[Audio] We provide Heat Illness Prevention Employee Training to educate all employees on the importance of acclimatization to heat and staying hydrated when working in hot environments. Our training meets the requirements of California Code of Regulations T8 3395 & 3396. By completing this training, we aim to prevent heat illness and promote the health and well-being of our employees..

[Audio] We are discussing the importance of heat illness prevention for employees. We have developed high heat procedures for both outdoors and indoors. Our training is compliant with the California Code of Regulations, T8 3395 & 3396. We are committed to the safety and well-being of our employees, and we will do everything in our power to prevent heat illness..

[Audio] We have developed a comprehensive training program on heat illness risks and emergency response. This training is mandatory per California Code of Regulations T8 3395 & 3396 and meets emergency response standards. During the training, supervisors will learn how to communicate and monitor emergency events, recognize heat illness symptoms, and take appropriate action. Employees will learn how to report symptoms, contact emergency services, and inform I-M-C-R per R-C-C-B policy. By completing this training, employees will be better equipped to prevent and respond to heat illness incidents, improving their safety and protecting the company's reputation and bottom line..
