      <title>Guide for Airports to Mitigate Outdoor Worker Exposure to Extreme Temperature Conditions</title>
      <link>https://rip.trb.org/View/2588331</link>
      <description><![CDATA[U.S. airports have outdoor workers who are exposed to extreme heat and cold, which may contribute to substantial health hazards and productivity losses. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards require measures to protect outdoor workers but do not provide specific mitigation strategies that airports can implement. The types of operations and the built environment of an airport may impact workers’ exposure to extreme temperatures.

Research is needed to provide airports with guidance for protecting outdoor workers’ health and safety while maintaining operations in extreme temperatures. A resulting guidance document would help airports mitigate exposure to extreme temperatures and minimize risk to outdoor workers. 

The objective of this research is to develop a guide for airport practitioners to protect outdoor workers’ health and safety while maintaining operations in extreme temperatures. ]]></description>
