Winter weather introduces serious safety risks that can impact employees both on and off the job. From freezing temperatures and icy conditions to dangerous travel environments, cold-related hazards can lead to illness, injury, and even fatalities if not properly managed.
This course provides essential training on recognizing and preventing cold stress and related hazards such as frostbite and hypothermia. Participants will learn how environmental factors like wind chill, moisture, and prolonged exposure increase risk, especially for workers who are not acclimated to cold conditions.
