Heat Stress training is a crucial safety program designed to protect workers from the debilitating and potentially fatal effects of working in high-temperature environments. This training is particularly vital in Saudi Arabia, which experiences extreme summer heat, with regulations from the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development (MHRSD) enforcing midday work bans and requiring employers to implement preventive measures.
Crucially, it educates participants on implementing effective control measures. The core objective is to empower workers and supervisors to proactively manage heat exposure, respond effectively to heat emergencies, and comply with national guidelines to ensure a safe and healthy working environment during hot weather.
