These regulations need to be tailored to individual industries. These regulations may be fair for farmers but they are completely unreasonable when it comes to my industry --- auto repair. Please don't make broad assumptions about every industry.

We are hanging on by a thread. This is not the time to add more costs to employers. In my industry all of the issues can be addressed by having areas that are air conditioned, which employees can take breaks in as they see fit.
