This resource is designed to support neighbourhood houses and other community service organisations to identify ways to support staff, volunteers and community members to stay safe during extreme heat. It should be tailored to suit the specific context of your organisation, considering the community you support and organisational capacity.
The Heatwave Planning Checklist should be completed before each summer, with appropriate actions undertaken. The subsequent Heatwave Plan is designed to support your organisation to respond effectively once a heatwave is underway. Adoption of this resource may not be sufficient for compliance with legal requirements, including business continuity planning.
