Heat Wave :: Healthy and Safety Reminder

This week, we’re facing some seriously high heat—temperatures are expected to stay hot through early next week. Because the heat can be tough on everyone, please take a moment to check out these important tips for staying safe while working in extreme heat:

  • Drink plenty of water all day long, even if you don’t feel thirsty.
  • Take frequent breaks in cool, air-conditioned spots whenever you can.
  • Work with a buddy so you can keep an eye on each other.
  • Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes to stay cool.

To our custodial and maintenance team members: We know your work is tough and physically demanding, but your health and safety always come first. Thanks for your hard work, and please stay safe out there!
