Heat Stress Readiness: Risk Management in the Shadow of OSHA’s HIIP Rule
Date: Thursday June 26, 2025 at 2:00pm ET - 1:00pm CT - 11:00am PT
As summer heat intensifies, safety leaders must be ready to act—even while federal regulations remain uncertain. While OSHA’s proposed “Heat Injury and Illness Prevention in Outdoor and Indoor Work Settings” (HIIP) rule continues to move forward with delays, many HSE professionals face the here-and-now challenge of protecting workers presently while preparing for what OSHA has in store. In this timely webinar, expert Reyka “RJ” Ravenwood will offer strategic guidance on building and implementing effective heat stress programs that align with current expectations and prepare your teams for eventual regulatory change.
Drawing on fresh updates from OSHA contacts and real-world safety leadership experience, our presenter will explore what the HIIP rule means for employers; how industrial hygiene and recordkeeping factor into indoor heat risks; and what proactive steps can ensure safety and compliance—regardless of whether a formal rule is finalized. Attendees will come away with tools to engage leadership, equip field supervisors, and drive meaningful program adoption.
Attendees will learn more about:
- Key components of OSHA’s HIIP proposal and its current status, including the upcoming public hearing and Regional Emphasis Programs (REPs)
- How to design scalable, cost-conscious heat illness prevention strategies that win stakeholder buy-in
- Practical tips for integrating administrative controls, training, and recordkeeping into existing safety programs
- How any HSE professionals can use this material to assess or enhance their own heat stress standards, and be ready for the rule, regardless of OSHA's timing
