Conduct non-emergency response activities in the early morning or evening <br /> during very hot weather. <br /> E. Provide shelter against heat and direct sunlight to protect personnel. <br /> F.

Also thermal protective <br /> clothing such as wind and/or moisture resistant outerwear is recommended to be worn. <br /> If work is performed continuously in the cold at or below -7°C (200F), including wind <br /> chill temperature, heated warming shelters (tents, cabins, company vehicles, rest <br /> rooms, etc.) shall be made available nearby and the worker should be encouraged to <br /> use these shelters at regular intervals, the frequency depending on the severity of the <br /> environmental exposure. The onset of heavy shivering, frostnip, the feeling of <br /> excessive fatigue, drowsiness, irritability or euphoria are indications for immediate <br /> return to the shelter. When entering the heated shelter, the outer layer of clothing <br /> shall be removed and the remainder of the clothing loosened to permit sweat <br /> evaporation. A change of dry work clothing shall be provided as necessary to prevent <br /> worker from returning to their work with wet clothing. Dehydration, or the loss of <br /> body fluids, occurs in the cold environment and may increase the susceptibility of the <br /> worker to cold injury due to a significant change in blood flow to the extremities. <br /> Warm sweet drinks and soup should be provided at the work site to provide caloric <br /> intake and fluid volume. The intake of coffee should be limited.
