Specifically, the Biden Administration is announcing a whole-of-government approach to address extreme heat by:

Developing Workplace Heat Standards and Increasing Enforcement
The Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is responsible for setting and enforcing standards to ensure safe, healthy working conditions. Heat is a growing workplace hazard, with the climate crisis making extreme heat more frequent and severe. Workers in agriculture and construction are often at highest risk, but the problem affects all workers exposed to heat, including indoor workers without climate-controlled environments. Too often, heat-induced injuries and illnesses are misclassified or not reported, especially in sectors that employ vulnerable and undocumented workers.

勞工部職業(yè)安全與健康管理局（OSHA）負(fù)責(zé)制定和執(zhí)行標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，以確保安全、健康的工作條件。高溫是一種日益嚴(yán)重的工作場(chǎng)所危害，氣候危機(jī)使極端高溫變得更加頻繁和嚴(yán)重。農(nóng)業(yè)和建筑業(yè)的工人往往面臨最高的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，但這個(gè)問(wèn)題影響到所有暴露在高溫下的工人，包括沒(méi)有氣候控制環(huán)境的室內(nèi)工人。高溫引發(fā)的傷害和疾病往往被錯(cuò)誤分類或沒(méi)有報(bào)告，尤其是在雇用弱勢(shì)和無(wú)證工人的部門。
