Heat Illness
 

Sirs/Madams,

Thank you for your leadership in creating the emergency COVID-19 standard. This is a request that you please develop strong standards and regulations for addressing heat illness to protect farmworkers and other at-risk workers. The regulations should outline standards for access to ater, breaks, training, and air-conditioning in employer provided housing.

Thank you.

Addie N. Peterson
