Today is National Heat Awareness Day! Created by OSHA, National Heat Awareness Day is held on the last Friday of May and serves to highlight the dangers related to heat stress. Any job site—indoors or outdoors—that can raise a worker’s internal core temperature increases the risk of heat stress. Our Heat Stress Fast Facts Brochure offers more information about the dangers of heat stress and some steps you can take to prevent or minimize heat stress hazards. #NationalHeatAwarenessDay
