Training & Awareness
We provide thorough training and awareness programs to our field and safety leaders, equipping them with the knowledge to identify and respond to the signs and symptoms of heat stress, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. Our leaders reinforce this information daily through morning huddles with our workforce, ensuring that everyone is well-informed.
Resources & Infrastructure
We provide ample resources to support our employees' well-being in hot environments. This includes hydration stations, proper ventilation, shaded areas, and cooling units where feasible. These resources create a safer and more comfortable working environment, reducing the risk of heat-related illnesses.
Safety Leadership
Our commitment to preventing heat-related illness doesn’t stop with providing guidance and resources; Our field leaders and safety professionals share a responsibility to actively monitor the workforce throughout the workday. In doing so, they can ensure the break cadence aligns with the prevailing conditions and actively promote and encourage proper hydration practices.
At Qt, we firmly believe that by implementing these measures, we can create a work environment where our workforce can perform their duties in a healthy and productive manner while minimizing the risks associated with heat exposure.
