Working outdoors in cold, wet, icy, or snowy conditions can lead to serious health risks such as hypothermia and frostbite. To help keep workers safe, CPWR has compiled a collection of resources with essential information and guidelines for protecting yourself in cold weather.
These materials come from trusted organizations—including the Center for Construction Research and Training (CPWR), the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
