This safety meeting guide covers working in hot conditions and preventing heat stress on the job. It explains what heat stress is, common symptoms from cramps to exhaustion and heat stroke, and practical controls: frequent water intake, regular rest breaks, light meals, scheduling strenuous tasks for cooler hours, ventilation and fans in enclosed areas, gradual acclimatization after time off, avoiding alcohol, and wearing light-colored, breathable clothing.
