The proposed regulations would apply to workplaces ranging from warehouses to schools and kitchens, requiring cooling devices, access to water and cooling-off break areas at certain temperature thresholds as well as monitoring for signs of heat illness.

This should have an impact at Amazon and for other warehouse workers, especially in Riverside and San Bernardino counties. Hoping there will be some relief soon for prisons, too.
