EXTREME COLD WEATHER
Keep in mind that during extreme cold weather
All Employees should:
1. Bring and wear their entire uniform including insulator and hat
2. Wear extra layers underneath their uniform
3. Wear neck gaiters, insulated gloves, and appropriate footwear
4. Advise and help ensure all guests loading lifts or in ski school are dressed appropriately
5. Look for the signs of frostbite on guests and fellow employees: white patches on skin, hard or waxy-looking skin can develop in one chair lift ride or ski/ride down. To resolve you will need to cover and warm area. Keep area covered after that.
Managers and Supervisors should:
1. Ensure your facility, office, or shop is secured from the cold (check to make sure windows and doors are shut and latched). Make sure heat is set to appropriate temperatures.
2. Make sure all employees are properly dressed and are on a rotation to allow for warm-up breaks when applicable.
3. Monitor employees for the signs of frostbite.
Anticipate any other potential effects extreme cold weather may have on your Line of Business.
