CLM: "As record-breaking heat waves become the norm, a new study from the Worker’s Compensation Research Institute (WCRI) finds that California’s heat standard has cut work-related injuries on hot days for industries with substantial exposure to outside heat. Since taking effect, the regulation has driven down injury rates in construction (15-17%), agriculture (24-27%), and transportation (19-25%)."
