California Indoor Heat Rules Effective IMMEDIATELY! On July 23rd, a new standard for Heat Illness Prevention in Indoor Places of Employment was approved by the Secretary of State and became effective immediately. The standard applies to all indoor work areas where the temperature equals or exceeds 82 degrees Fahrenheit. The new standards generally require dealers and other employers to provide indoor workers with water, rest breaks, and cool-down areas whenever the indoor temperature in the job site hits 82 degrees or greater for heat illness prevention.
