While temperatures have subsided in California, the attention on California’s Indoor Heat Illness Prevention Regulation has intensified. Although California’s Heat Illness Prevention in Outdoor Places (8 CCR 3395) has been in force since 2005, California now is on the verge of adopting an analogous Indoor Heat Illness Prevention Regulation, marking one of the first standards of its kind in the country. While the draft standard has undergone various revisions over the past year, the current version is likely in its final form. The Cal/OSHA Standards Board is anticipated to vote on the regulation during its March 2024 meeting, with the final regulation expected to take effect this summer.
Since both outdoor and indoor heat illness hazards have been covered by a special emphasis program from Cal/OSHA for several years, the new Indoor Heat Illness Prevention Regulation is expected to continue to be a high enforcement area for Cal/OSHA. Accordingly, now is the time for California employers to familiarize themselves with the regulation and begin to prepare for compliance.
Participants in this webinar learned about:
• The requirements of the Indoor Heat Illness Prevention Regulation
• Landmines awaiting employers as they move into compliance with the new regulation
• Strategies for developing a compliant Indoor Heat Illness Prevention Plan
• The intersection between the Indoor and Outdoor Heat Illness Prevention Standards and how to integrate both
