In Episode 78, we talk about the Occupational Health and Safety Administration’s recent proposed regulations on Heat Stress. We chat about what is heat stress, who is susceptible, how do we prevent it, and where is all the OHP research on heat stress? We recommend that listeners who are able respond to the call for public comment for OSHA to share your expertise, address their specific questions, and support these regulations. To aid in this, you can find a copy of what Keaton submitted on our Healthy Work Substack. The deadline for these comments is December 30, 2024.
