Sur Legal Collaborative⚠️ Extreme Heat is a Workplace Hazard!
Know Your Rights & Stay Safe 🌡️ Whether you’re working under the blaring sun or inside a hot warehouse or kitchen, extreme heat can be deadly. You don't have to risk your health for a paycheck. Quick prevention checklist: 🚰 Drink water every 15 minutes. 🌿 Take breaks in cool or shaded areas. 👕 Wear light, breathable clothing. ⚠️ Know the difference: 🟡 Heat Exhaustion: Dizziness, nausea, heavy sweating. 🔴 Heat Stroke: Confusion, fainting, hot/red skin. This is a medical emergency—Call 911 immediately! Your employer is legally required to provide clean drinking water, shade, and cool-down breaks. You have the right to speak up about unsafe heat conditions without fear of retaliation. 👉 Stand up for your health alongside your coworkers.
