Heat stress a concern in hot weather

With this week's taste of an early summer in mind, the Office of Environmental Health and Safety reminds the campus community of the concern of heat stress.

This isn't just a concern while at work. It can also affect you at home and at play, as well.

Information is available on the EHS website in the index under Heat Stress Awareness.

Want to know if the current conditions are a concern? There's an app for that. OSHA offers a Heat Safety Tool app that gives current local information on current heat and humidity as well as a heat index rating.

Additional information is available by contacting the EHS office at 360-650-3064.
