Working in the cold weather

If you work outside, you may be at risk of exposure to extreme cold.
Prolonged exposure to cold can result in hypothermia, a serious condition that requires immediate medical attention. Your workplace must have measures in place manage the risks to your health and safety cause by exposure to cold weather, including:

• providing heating, for example cab heaters
• providing protection, such as a hut or the cabin of a vehicle
• providing warm and waterproof clothing, and
• enabling workers who are not used to working in cold conditions to acclimatise.

Eliminating exposure to cold is the best protection.
