Solar Heat Illness Prevention

Protect Your Crews From Heat.
Document Every Precaution.

The Challenge

01

Heat exposure is the top solar hazard

Open desert sites with zero shade and reflective panels create extreme heat conditions that injure workers every summer.

02

Rest break compliance is undocumented

You tell crews to take breaks but have no record that breaks actually happened. That is a liability gap.

03

WBGT readings are not tracked consistently

Wet bulb globe temperature readings are taken sporadically, if at all. No historical data for trend analysis.

04

Heat illness response has no paper trail

When a worker shows heat stress symptoms, the response is verbal. No documentation means no defensible record.

The POD Advantage

Automated WBGT Monitoring

Continuous monitoring

POD integrates with on-site weather stations to log WBGT readings automatically throughout the day.

Mandatory Rest Break Logging

Documented compliance

Supervisors log rest breaks with timestamps and crew counts. Proof that your heat illness plan was followed.

Tiered Heat Alert System

Proactive protection

Automatic alerts at caution, warning, and danger thresholds. Each tier triggers specific documented actions.

Heat Response Documentation

Defensible records

When heat incidents occur, document response steps in real time with timestamps, photos, and outcomes.

Key Features

“We logged 2,400 rest breaks last summer. When OSHA asked about our heat illness plan, we had every record.”
