Proactive Heat Strategy for AZ Workers, Community/Labor Call 

National COSH will be hosting a bilingual call on February 2nd at 1PM

 

GOAL is for labor and community partners in AZ to learn more about:
  • what others are doing to help workers secure protection from extreme heat; 
  • existing multilingual heat safety and heat organizing training resources;
  • ongoing opportunities for advocacy (examples: federal heat standard rulemaking update, AZ OSHA heat emphasis enforcement program)
  • campaign possibilities for more meaningful protection (examples: Oregon OSHA heat standard, proposed county heat ordinance in Miami-Dade)
  • a coordinated heat action during Workers' Memorial Week (April 21-28)
  • who else should be driving this conversation ?

 

 

 

 

 

 

La META es que los socios laborales y comunitarios en AZ aprendan más sobre:
  • Qué están haciendo otros para ayudar a trabajadores a obtener protección contra el calor extremo
  • Recursos de capacitación multilingües existentes sobre seguridad térmica y organización del calor
  • Oportunidades continuas de promoción (ejemplos: actualización de la normativa federal sobre calor, programa de cumplimiento de énfasis en calor de OSHA AZ)
  • Posibilidades de campaña para una protección más significativa (ejemplos: norma de calefacción de OSHA de Oregón, propuesta de ordenanza de calor del condado de Miami-Dade)
  • Una acción coordinada de calor durante la Semana Conmemorativa de Trabajadores Fallecidos y Lesionados (del 21 al 28 de abril)
  • ¿Quién más debería liderar esta conversación?
