Text in yellow over a black background. A large flame licks up the left side of the page. Text is a quote attributed to "Lorena, Warehouse Workers for Justice." quote is as follows: "This can be fixed, but we have to visualize the workplace we want and organize ourselves to achieve it. Workers have to educate themselves about the risks and have self-respect to organize and improve." In the bottom left corner is a logo for WAREHOUSE WORKERS FOR JUSTICE. It features a globe and a lightning bolt with the letters WWJ above them.

Despite the government's failure to regulate, workers and organizers like Lorena are demanding:

💧 Ample drinkable water
☂️ Sufficient shade
🚾 Bathroom access & breaks
🌡️ Trigger temperatures
🧑‍🏫 Heat trainings
💵 Pay for lost work
🏥 Healthcare & sick leave

Photograph of a young woman wearing an apron in a kitchen. She looks at the camera with a small smile. Laid over the photo is text: "FOOD WORKERS ARE HOT; HEAT PROTECTIONS NOW!" and "RESTAURANT WORKERS." There's a quote from Ingrid, the restaurant worker in the photo. “The heat in the kitchen is horrendous. The grills and griddles get really hot... Even though we have some ventilation, the heat is overwhelming, tiring, and it lasts all day... "There's no time to go to the bathroom or get a drink of water... The only thing we can do is to hydrate before we get in and use wet towels on our bodies while we work. "Workers have fainted and suffered heat strokes. You go to work hoping you don't faint that day. "

👩🏾‍🍳🔥 Restaurant workers are HOT!

But #ExtremeHeat "is is not an occupational hazard," says Ingrid, a restaurant worker in NYC. "Owners can make the spaces wider and less cramped, as well as providing better ventilation and air conditioning."

So why don't they? #HeatProtectionsNow
