OSHA’s Heat Stress Standard and the Future of Worker Safety Amid US Election Uncertainty
Listen now
Description
In this episode of the "Safety Consultant Show with Sheldon Primus," we dive into OSHA's open comment period for the upcoming Heat Stress Standard, a critical issue for both indoor and outdoor workers. As temperatures continue to rise, it's important for safety professionals to understand the impact of this new regulation and how to prepare their organizations for compliance. I also discuss the potential future of OSHA depending on the outcome of the upcoming US elections. If Vice President Kamala Harris wins, OSHA is expected to ramp up compliance enforcement. On the other hand, if former President Donald Trump returns to office, the Project 2025 agenda could lead to the defunding or deregulation of OSHA. This episode encourages listeners to stay informed and proactive as these developments will directly impact worker safety regulations.
