As part of the Heat Stress Toolkit, OHCOW has partnered with CROSH to review and update the existing Heat Stress Awareness Guide. With the help of the Ontario health and safety prevention system partners and local labour unions, we identified areas that required improvement or revision. The original single guide has been expanded into three guides.
The new Heat Stress Toolkit also includes many infographics, videos, and a new online Heat Stress Calculator. It has been developed to help those supporting and protecting heat exposed workers including: employers, managers, supervisors, fellow workers, Joint Health & Safety Committee (JHSC) members, health and safety representatives, and workplace union representatives. Unions, employer associations, and health and safety professionals may also find this information useful.
