Summary
The bill adds new definitions for temperature‑related injuries and requires employers to adopt a written prevention plan that includes free cool water, shade, temperature monitoring, acclimatization, training and emergency response. It directs the Department of Labor’s Division of Labor Standards to build a data‑collection platform, develop a model prevention plan, and provides modest funding for implementation.
