Over the past few weeks, the increased temperature has created a heat hazard advisory, posing significant risks to workers. We understand the challenges of potential inadequate hydration and the possibility of working in enclosed structures that may limit air movement, which can intensify these dangers. To mitigate these risks, Austin utilizes our heat stress plan which incorporates shaded locations, adequate breaks, and access to hydration such as cool electrolyte popsicles and occasional treats like Kona ice snow cones for those working on the project sites. While these measures are essential, everyone must actively participate in Heat Safety, and understand how to recognize any heat related illness and stay aware of preventative measures. We appreciate all our trade partners and the hard work they put into building quality work. Let's continue to help each other stay safe and cool in this extreme heat! #SummerSafety #Construction #AustinProud
