As the Haze Clears, What Comes Next?

After a period of poor air quality, daily routines, workplaces and communities may still be adjusting. Haze can affect more than time spent outdoors, with wider implications for public health, employee safety and business operations. 
 
As conditions improve, consider:

• Your health
  Continue paying attention to how you and those around you are feeling, particularly people who may be more sensitive to poor air quality.
• Your routine
  Resume outdoor activities gradually and continue checking official air-quality updates.
• Your workplace
  Review whether employees or operations were disrupted and whether any measures should stay in place.
• Your preparedness
  Look back at what worked, what did not, and what you could prepare earlier if haze returns.

Improving conditions is also a good opportunity to review how prepared you are for future climate-related disruptions, including whether your health, home or business has the protection needed to support recovery.
