Extreme temperatures pose a significant risk to workers’ health and safety, especially in industries like construction, agriculture and utilities where workers are often outdoors. Prolonged exposure to extreme cold can lead to serious conditions such as chilblains, frostbite and hypothermia, while heat stress can cause dehydration, heat stroke and even fatalities.
Employers must protect workers from the health effects of working in extreme temperatures by controlling the risks and providing awareness training.
This course helps ensure employees recognise the hazards and health complications of heat and cold stress and understand how to apply control measures to reduce risks.
