How to respond to high heat alerts and confirm procedure compliance.

High Heat Procedures in Aversify

When: When the High Heat Card on your Supervisor Console shows that temperature at your site exceeds the threshold.

  1. Check the High Heat Card on the Supervisor Console for current temperature conditions at your site.
  2. When high heat conditions are active, implement required procedures: ensure extra water is available, provide shade access, and enforce mandatory rest breaks.
  3. At 105F and above, implement additional procedures including the buddy system to monitor workers for heat illness symptoms.
  4. Confirm the high heat event in the system to document that procedures were followed.

Outcome

High heat procedures are implemented and documented, protecting workers and creating a compliance record.

Common Mistakes

Ignoring the high heat alert because the crew "is used to the heat." California regulations require documented procedures regardless of worker acclimation.

What Happens If Skipped

Workers are at risk of heat illness. If an incident occurs, there is no documentation that required procedures were followed. Cal/OSHA citations are likely.
