On July 26, GBCA visited several member job sites to promote awareness on reducing the risk of heat- and sun-related injuries. These activities were part of OSHA’s Water. Rest. Shade. campaign during the month of July.

Though the clouds rolled in, it was still humid and hot outside! At each job site, GBCA Director of Safety Services Frank Durso handed out water, and gave a short presentation of safety information and tips on working in the heat and humidity.

We visited the following job sites:
