According to occupational injury data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, dozens of workers die every year from heat exposure. Thousands more report sickness due to working in hot or humid environments. Heat hazards are present across many industries. Although most prevalent in the transportation, manufacturing, protective services, installation and repair, construction, and maintenance industries, risk of exposure to high temperatures can be identified in practically all occupations.
