Phoenix Implements Heat Safety Law for Workers Due to Increasing Temperatures and Fatalities | |
The Phoenix City Council has passed a new law requiring all city contractors and subcontractors to create and implement heat safety plans. This new rule, driven by labor advocacy and a spike in temperatures, requires that workers be provided with cool, potable water, rest breaks, and access to shaded or air-conditioned areas. By May 1, 2025, it will also be compulsory to equip enclosed cabs with air conditioning. This decision comes in the wake of Phoenix experiencing unprecedented heat in 2023, leading to a record 395 heat-related fatalities, as reported by Maricopa County’s public health department.
