Stop reading the Oregon rest table from memory.

Heat index 80 F starts water, shade, and a written plan. From 90 F the rest schedule steps up every five degrees. RestShade watches the Oregon rest table, keeps the daily record, and shows the tier that applies. Most days you do nothing. When heat index crosses, it flags the site and pings the right people.

The problem

The rule is a table, and tables do not survive contact with a job site. Foremen guess, and the guess is what ends up in the record.

How RestShade helps

RestShade holds the table and applies it to the heat index you record, so the answer is on screen with the citation instead of recalled from a training class.

What you walk away with

The rest interval for the reading in front of you
Water, shade, and plan duties from the 80 F trigger
A citation on every duty so you can check the source

What RestShade handles

80 F: cool water, shaded or cooled rest area, written plan available
90 F: at least 10 minutes rest every two hours
95 F: 20 minutes hourly. 100 F: 30 minutes hourly. 105 F: 40 minutes hourly.
Alternative employer-designed and NIOSH schedules recorded as such

How it works

RestShade evaluates heat index Oregon sites are watched against OAR 437-002-0156 thresholds continuously.
The rest tier appears on screen Water, shade, and rest intervals show with citations when heat index crosses.
Supervisors sign the record Reading, tier, and acknowledgment stay on one log per site.

Frequently asked questions

Which tier applies if the heat index climbs mid shift? The tier for the reading you record. Many shops log a second reading in the afternoon so the record shows the change.
Is the plan required below 80 F? The written plan is something you maintain, while the field duties attach at the action level. RestShade keeps the plan current either way.
Does this cover Oregon wildfire smoke too? No, smoke is a separate rule at OAR 437-002-1081. Both packs run from one RestShade account.
