Some of the symptoms are non-specific. This means that when a worker is per-forming physical labor in a warm environment, any unusual symptom can be a sign of overheating.Employers and work-ers should become familiar with the heat symptoms. When any of these symp-toms is present, promptly provide first aid. Do not try to diagnose which ill-ness is occurring. Diagno-sis is often difficult because symptoms of multiple heat-related illnesses can occur together. Time is of the es-sence. These conditions can worsen quickly and result in fatalities.When in doubt, cool the worker and call 911.OSHA’s Medical Services Be Prepared: Heat-Related Illnesses & First Aidand First Aid standard and the Medical Service and First Aid in Construction require the ready avail-ability of first aid person-nel and equipment. First aid for heat-related illness involves the following prin-ciples:Take the affected worker to a cooler area (e.g., shade or air conditioning).Cool the worker imme-diately. Use active cooling techniques such as:Immerse the worker in cold water or an ice bath. Create the ice bath by plac-ing all of the available ice into a large container with water, standard practice in sports. This is the best method to cool workers rap-idly in an emergency.Remove outer layers of clothing, especially heavy protective clothing.Place ice or cold wet tow-els on the head, neck, trunk, armpits, and groin.Use fans to circulate air around the worker.Never leave a worker with heat-related illness alone. The illness can rapid-ly become worse. Stay with the worker.When in doubt, call 911!Confusion, slurred speech, or unconsciousness are signs of heat stroke. When these types of symp-toms are present, call 911 immediately and cool the worker with ice or cold wa-ter until help arrives.Workers who are new to working in warm environ-ments are at increased risk of heat-related illness. See the Protecting New Work-ers section of this website for more details. Especially during a worker’s first few days, absolutely all symp-toms should be taken seri-ously. Workers who develop symptoms should be al-lowed to stop working. They should receive evaluation for possible heat-related ill-ness.By Jennifer WolffTEFAP Food commodi-ties will be available Thurs-day July 27th at the Harper County Courthouse 201 N.
