Millions of workers are exposed to high heat every year, creating environments that put them at risk for Heat Stress. Heat Stress can result in a range of occupational illnesses and injuries, from heat stroke and heat exhaustion to heat craps and heat rashes. Heat stress impacts workers a wide range of industries, both indoor and outdoor. Examples of impacted industries include construction, agriculture, lumber and timber, manufacturing, chemical and process, facility maintenance, bakeries, and warehouse and distribution centers.
