Heat Stress Prevention Behaviour Change Campaign
A behaviour change campaign on heat stress prevention is shifting a specific behaviour through repetition, feedback, and recognition. It the target behaviour, the triggers and barriers, daily prompts, supervisor coaching, and metrics that show whether behaviour is moving.
What this campaign covers
- Heat stress is preventable, yet it still causes lost-time incidents in hot climates and heavy PPE environments.
- Hydration, acclimatisation, shade, and work-rest cycles are the four controls that matter most.
- This behaviour change campaign typically runs for 4–6 weeks and focuses on one clear, measurable behaviour change.

Frequently asked questions
- What are the core controls for heat stress?
- Hydration with electrolytes, gradual acclimatisation for new or returning workers, scheduled rest in shade or cooled areas, and adjusted work intensity during peak heat. PPE should be the last thing added, not the first.
- How do I run a heat stress campaign in a hot climate?
- Start before the hot season. Train supervisors to recognise early signs, set a hydration target, post a simple heat-index trigger table, and make cool rest areas easy to reach. Use short, visual reminders that work for transient crews.
- Why use a behaviour change campaign for heat stress prevention?
- Because heat stress prevention requires more than awareness. A behaviour change campaign keeps the topic in daily conversation, builds a specific habit, and gives you a metric to track whether the message is landing.
