Summary

The bill bars the Secretary of Labor from finalizing, implementing, or enforcing the OSHA proposed standard on heat injury and illness prevention for outdoor and indoor work settings. It would stop the rule from applying to employers in any industry, which supporters argue is overly prescriptive and burdensome. The measure is intended to prevent confusion and what they view as unnecessary regulation of worker safety.
