———————————–
VERBATIM: The proposal comes as tens of millions of people in the U.S. are under heat advisories due to blistering temperatures. If finalized, the measure would protect an estimated 36 million U.S. workers from injuries related to heat exposure on the job. Those affected by excessive heat in the workplace include farmworkers, delivery and construction workers, landscapers, gardeners as well as workers in warehouses, factories and kitchens.
