Chamber:
This bill intends to regulate workplace heat exposure requirements at the state level, preempting local authorities. It mandates the creation of uniform statewide regulations by the Department of Commerce if federal OSHA standards are not established by July 1, 2028. The bill outlines the definition of terms relevant to heat exposure and prohibits local governments from imposing their own requirements on employers. However, local governments retain the power to regulate their own employees' heat exposure and the law will not apply if it conflicts with federal funding conditions.
