Wildfire Smoke and Air Quality

Additional Resources


Ultimately, each employee should develop and discuss with their supervisor (if necessary depending on individual medical conditions) a personal action plan for how to deal with poor air quality.  This plan may include discussions with a health care provider. 

EHS 306 Wildfire Protections Training is required for outdoor workers when they work for one or more hours during a work shift when AQI levels are at or above 151.

Other resources include Air Quality Tips and Resources information from the LBNL Energy Technologies Area (ETA), 1 Minute 4 Safety and the EHS Field Guide for safety meetings or safety item openers during regular meetings.
