The CSULB Heat Illness Prevention Plan (HIPP) is intended to control occurrence of heat related illness. The Plan applies to all outdoor areas of the campus where employees can be assigned work, and where environmental conditions cannot be mitigated by engineering controls.
Additionally, the Plan also applies to indoor areas where employees may be assigned work, where the indoor temperature meets or exceeds 100° F. The Plan is also applicable to university emergency response personnel, or other employees who are required to wear and perform work in full - body personal protective suits, regardless of exterior or interior ambient temperatures.
