    It’s specifically a ban on sub-state-level political subdivisions mandating protections beyond what the state level does. But the state of Florida doesn’t have any mandated protections, so it would be whatever OSHA says, and OSHA doesn’t either. Miami required employers to provide water breaks and the ghouls freaked out. I can’t imagine the level of dysfunction in Florida.

    • Well… OSHA does and it does not, While OSHA does not have any standard in the OSH act there is a clause 5A1 that more or less says “you cant make your employees do something that is dangerous” so an OSHA inspector can cite them for that… and that is how heat is regulated by OSHA under that status quo… but that means its more or less up to the inspector, and how much extra paperwork they are willing to do
