IIPP & Heat Illness Prevention
Practical help developing, reviewing and implementing California IIPP and heat illness procedures.
Cal/OSHA requires California employers to establish, implement and maintain an effective written Injury and Illness Prevention Program. The details should match the workplace, hazards and workforce—not just a template.
CHRA helps operational employers connect written requirements to day-to-day practices.
California has separate outdoor and indoor heat illness standards. Indoor rules generally apply to covered indoor work areas at 82°F or higher; outdoor requirements apply to outdoor workplaces, with additional high-heat procedures for certain industries and conditions.
The real test is whether supervisors know the procedures, employees understand how to report symptoms and the business can show that training and prevention practices are active.
