Stop pretending every crew triggers at 80 F.

The action level depends on clothing: 52 F in nonbreathable gear, 80 F otherwise. Cool-down rest steps up at 90 F and 100 F. RestShade watches Washington sites, figures out the clothing-aware trigger, and keeps the daily record. Most days you do nothing. When the action level hits, it flags the site and pings the right people.

The problem

Shops read the 80 F number, staff around it, and never learn that a crew in vapor-barrier suits triggered the rule in April.

How RestShade helps

RestShade applies the clothing-aware trigger for you. Set what the crew is wearing and the log shows the action level and duties that actually apply.

What you walk away with

The right action level for each crew and each day
Cool-down rest and observation duties recorded at the high-heat tiers
A year-round written program that does not depend on the season

What RestShade handles

Water, shade, and program duties at 52 F for nonbreathable clothing
Same duties at 80 F for other clothing
Mandatory paid cool-down rest at 90 F and again at 100 F
Written Outdoor Heat Exposure Safety Program maintained year-round

How it works

RestShade reads clothing on the site log Nonbreathable or other gear decides which Washington action level applies.
Duties appear when temperature crosses Water, shade, and paid cool-down rest show with WAC 296-62-095 cited.
Supervisors sign per site Each job keeps its own dated record with the supervisor who signed it.

Frequently asked questions

What counts as nonbreathable clothing? Vapor-barrier gear and similar clothing that traps heat, such as some abatement and coating suits. If your crew wears it, the 52 F action level applies.
Does the program have to exist in winter? Yes. The written program is maintained year-round, while the field duties apply whenever an action level is reached.
How does this pair with Washington smoke rules? WAC 296-820 covers wildfire smoke separately, starting at PM2.5 20.5 for training. Logs are expected at PM2.5 35.5 and above. Both packs run from the same account and the same site log.
