Cardiovascular health is essential to living a long, healthy, and fulfilling life, yet it’s something we often overlook in our busy daily routines.

🛍️ Retail Worker Safety Act Signed into Law in New York! 🛍️ Governor Kathy Hochul has signed the Retail Worker Safety Act (RWSA) into law, taking crucial steps to protect retail employees and shoppers. The act requires corporate retail employers to implement a violence prevention plan, train workers in de-escalation and active shooter scenarios, and install panic buttons for quick emergency response. Key highlights: Mandatory violence prevention plans for retail employers. Training programs developed by the NY Department of Labor. Employers must maintain records of violent incidents for at least three years. While some businesses raised concerns about costs, this law represents a major win for retail workers. With preventative measures in place, the goal is to stop violence and theft before they happen. What do you think—will this law make a significant impact on retail safety? https://buff.ly/3Xy5MwV #RetailSafety #WorkerProtection #NewYorkLaw #WorkplaceSafety #EmployeeWellbeing

🌡️ OSHA’s Proposed Heat Safety Rule: A Game-Changer for Worker Protection? 🌡️ OSHA has proposed a new Heat Injury and Illness Prevention Standard for both indoor and outdoor workplaces, and it’s time for public input! The rule would require employers to implement plans ensuring access to water, rest breaks, and heat control measures. 🌞 Key highlights: Applies to all industries under OSHA’s jurisdiction, including construction, agriculture, and maritime. Employers must provide shaded or air-conditioned break areas and take extra precautions for workers unaccustomed to heat. Exceptions include work activities with short, intermittent heat exposures. With extreme heat becoming a bigger threat globally, this rule aims to protect workers from heat-related injuries and illnesses. What are your thoughts on these new standards? Are they feasible for all workplaces? https://buff.ly/3ThARSR #WorkplaceSafety #HeatProtection #OSHARegulations #WorkerWellbeing #HeatSafety
