There are some tasks within the workplace that expose employees to high levels of heat. These extreme temperatures are dangerous and pose several potential threats to a person’s safety; they could even result in death. It is crucial, therefore, to protect all employees whose job involves them directly accessing hot items or dealing with high levels of humidity, radiant heat sources or other temperature-related situations.

When it comes to heat-related injuries, the number one most common example of this type of accident is accidental burns, which are typically caused by direct contact with steam, high levels of heat or touching hot surfaces. Heat stress is another nasty, yet common, heat-related hazard experienced by many employees that can cause symptoms such as cramps, heat exhaustion, heat stroke (which can lead to death) and rashes.

OSHA (the Occupational Safety and Health Administration committee) have put into place several guidelines to identify these hazards and safeguard staff. Business owners are urged to adhere to these guidelines.

If staff could be exposed to high levels of heat they must be warned of the associated risks. This is where temperature warning signs and training material come into their own.

As well as taking steps to warn those close to the hazardous area of the risks they’re exposing themselves to, employees and premises owners should also be prepared to treat potential injuries with the correct specialist equipment for the situation. Although general first aid kits are useful to help treat most kinds of minor injuries that happen in the workplace, when it comes to injuries sustained from extreme temperatures, it’s important to have the correct materials to hand.

Should the worst happen, one of our fully compliant and comprehensive burns kits will help provide the injured party with the effective and immediate treatment required. These kits, which should be stored close to the areas containing temperature hazards, will be sufficient to treat burns or scalding and ease the pain for the sufferer. Dependent on the severity of the injury, a trip to hospital may also be necessary.

Keeping those on site well informed of the hazards of exposure to high temperatures will prepare them for the risks ahead and help them cope with working in hot conditions. This will, ultimately, safeguard them from harm and allow them to perform their role safely and efficiently.

Seton also provide a wide range of other warning signs and danger signs to keep employees safe in the workplace.

Does my workplace or public building need temperature warning signs?


There are many situations where you need temperature warning signs for your premises and specific areas. It is something that many types of workplaces and public buildings must consider to stay compliant and meet their duty of care to employees, visitors and residents.

The most obvious businesses that require up-to-date and clearly displayed health and safety temperature signs are commercial kitchens, manufacturers and engineering companies that use machinery generating high temperatures – though, of course, a cold warning sign would also be needed for low-temperature areas, equipment and processes.

However, many more companies need to source temperature warning signage.
Public buildings such as schools, colleges and local authority workplaces need to carry out risk assessments of their kitchens to spot the best location for a low-temperature warning symbol or signage to explain the safe use of ovens and dishwashers to avoid exposure to heat or steam.

Tourism and hospitality businesses may need to find a reputable supplier of signage featuring a temperature warning symbol for their public toilets and bathrooms. For example, warning hot water signs can ensure that your customers don’t experience a nasty scolding. Care homes and other multi-residency buildings could also require danger hot water signs, for example. It is often a case of covering your indemnity obligations and avoiding legal action when you fail to display the correct temperature signs.
