Heat Illness Prevention (California)

Introductory · Course MIG-GI-111

Cal/OSHA 8 CCR §3395 — water, shade, cool-down rests, high-heat procedures, and acclimatization.

This is a Migna Safety Solutions course with a Migna certificate of completion. It is not OSHA Outreach Training and does not include a Department of Labor card.

California has an enforceable heat standard that goes well beyond anything federal OSHA requires. This course covers 8 CCR §3395 (Heat Illness Prevention in Outdoor Places of Employment) in practical terms: the 80°F shade trigger, the 95°F high-heat procedures, potable water at one quart per employee per hour, preventative cool-down rest periods, acclimatization and the first 14 days, emergency response, and the written Heat Illness Prevention Plan — plus the indoor counterpart, 8 CCR §3396. This is awareness and knowledge training that supports your employer's §3395 training obligation. It does not replace it: your employer must still have a written, site-specific Heat Illness Prevention Plan and must train you on its own procedures in a language you understand. Issues a Migna certificate of completion.

Seat time is enforced on our servers. The clock is calculated from signed progress events rather than in your browser, so it cannot be sped up — a certificate that states 27 minutes of training means it.

This certificate does not expire on a clock

The standard behind this course sets no fixed retraining interval, so we do not print one. Retraining is triggered by events instead — a new hazard, a changed process, or an observed deficiency. Your employer or insurer may set their own interval, which is a real obligation but not a federal one.
