11 months agoNo it looks like it’s a ban on regulatory authorities from mandating heat protections on companies that go above state mandates. It reads to me like companies could still provide them, but are under no obligation to provide anything above the state mandates minimum. The headline is poorly written.
When they say agencies they mean local government bodies.
I think its safe to assume that companies (in Florida, using exploitative labor already) will spend as little as possible on the safety of their employees
