Big business lobbies against heat protections for workers as US boils - Lemmy.world

I work in an industry working with other industrial businesses and we’ve seen so many of their employees get heat related injuries this summer. It’s very hard to get companies to view people as humans and not as a disposable asset.

A lot of times these companies won’t increase protections for workers without the government stepping in with laws and regulations.

Yikes that’s rough. Thank you for sharing your real world experiences. Stay cool out there.
