Description

In this installment of our Safety Perspectives From the Dallas Region podcast series, John Surma (shareholder, Houston) is joined by special guest Melissa Bailey (shareholder, Washington, D.C.) to discuss the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) proposed rule on heat illness—“Heat Injury and Illness Prevention in Outdoor and Indoor Work Settings.” Melissa and John explain how the rulemaking process works and discuss potential challenges if the rule becomes final. They also review key aspects of the rule, including temperature levels that trigger coverage under the standard, acclimatization protocols, mandatory rest breaks, and employee training.
