Did Your Employer Fail to Protect You from the Heat? They Likely Broke the Law. We Can Help.
Though California is known for its temperate environment, many workers can tell you that its heat is not to be taken lightly. And yet, in the name of maximizing their revenues, countless employers refuse breaks, impose unsafe hours, and fail to protect workers from the heat in other ways.
If you or a loved one were dangerously exposed to the California heat because of an employer, that employer likely broke the law. You deserve fair compensation for any medical costs, distress, lost income, and other harm that resulted from the employer’s unacceptable failure to protect you.
Call the California employment law attorneys at ARCH Legal PC today at (866) 331-1338 or contact us by email. Let us handle the demands of your case, which may include liable parties putting the heat on us. Unlike your employer, we will protect you from such heat as we demand fair compensation for you.
Protecting Employees from the Heat Isn’t Just “The Right Thing to Do.” It’s the Law.
When you analyze the law, there is no room for employers to deny employees relief from the heat. Any employer whose employees are exposed to dangerous heat must take measures to protect the employees from heat stroke and other potential complications.
It’s not enough for employers to grant employees breaks when they request them. Employers must take the lead in protecting employees. Even when employees express a desire to “tough it out” in hot conditions, employers must protect them by insisting on breaks, hydration, and other preventative measures.
