What crucial action should employees take if they notice signs of heat illness in themselves or co-workers?

Ignore the symptoms
Report it to the employer immediately
Wait until the end of the shift
Call a friend

The correct answer is: Report it to the employer immediately

When employees notice signs of heat illness in themselves or co-workers, the most crucial action is to report it to the employer immediately. Heat illness can progress rapidly and lead to serious health complications, including heat exhaustion or heat stroke, both of which can be life-threatening. By promptly notifying the employer, they can take appropriate measures, such as providing cooling time, fluids, or medical assistance, which can mitigate the risk of severe outcomes. Addressing heat illness immediately is vital in agricultural settings, where the risk is heightened due to outdoor work in hot conditions. Timely communication enables proper intervention and promotes a culture of safety within the workplace, ensuring that all employees are aware of their health and safety responsibilities.
