Summary
The Workplace Extreme Temperatures Protection Standards Act would obligate employers to write and implement safety plans for workers exposed to extreme heat (80°F or above) or cold (15°F or below). It mandates paid rest breaks, fluid provision, employee training, and bans retaliation for reporting violations. The aim is to lower temperature‑related injuries and fatalities, especially for outdoor laborers.
