- A campaign to combat heat stress in Ontario workplaces .
- The OFL made this submission , calling for heat stress to be identified as a workplace hazard in the Occupational Health and Safety Act.
- “We need better protections for workers from heat stress as Ontario faces more climate change-driven extreme heat events.
- That’s why I’m joining the call to recognize heat stress under the Occupational Health and Safety Act.”
The OFL’s heat stress campaign is based on a legislative petition that will be circulated in Ontario workplaces and communities in the coming months, with the goal of winning meaningful heat stress legislation in the fall.
