OSHA-recommended strategies to reduce heat-related incidents
As summer approaches and temperatures rise, it is crucial to protect your employees from heat-related incidents. In 2022, OSHA launched a targeted program to protect workers from the increasing threat of heat-related illness. This program is called the National Emphasis Program (NEP) on Outdoor and Indoor Heat-Related Hazards. Originally, it was set to expire in 2025, but has been extended by one more year.
