In July, OSHA released a proposed heat safety standard. Through a public comment period, health professionals now have the opportunity to weigh in on this standard and support its swift finalization and implementation.
In this webinar co-sponsored by PSR, an expert panel featuring Texas PSR’s Dr. Brett Perkison addresses how extreme heat impacts health and our healthcare system, explores the burden on the communities most at risk, and discusses the recently released OSHA heat standards. The webinar also shares advocacy opportunities and resources for health organizations and individual health professionals to engage in this important work. .
