摘要: As coastal temperatures continue to rise, many workers in the maritime industry are increasingly exposed to high-heat and high-humidity conditions, exacerbating their risks of developing heat-related illnesses. To combat these risks, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has begun developing workplace heat-safety regulations and concurrently implementing enforcement initiatives to mitigate heat-related hazards. Although it will likely be years before OSHA finalizes its heat regulations, the agency has put certain "high risk" industries-including many segments of the maritime industry-on notice that it is doubling unannounced inspections and increasing enforcement activity related to heat hazards.
