Webinar – Too Hot to Work: Farm Workers and the Fight for Heat Protections

Too Hot to Work webinar – heat stress and farmworker protections – hosted by National Farm Worker Ministry

As temperatures rise across the country, farm workers are being pushed beyond the limits of human endurance—often without shade, water, or rest. Heat stress isn’t just uncomfortable—it’s dangerous, and far too often, it’s deadly.

Join us  Wednesday, August 3, at 2 p.m. ET  (1 p.m. CT | 12 p.m. MT | 11 a.m. PT) for an urgent conversation about the realities of heat stress in farm labor and the current fight to pass meaningful protections at the federal level.

You’ll hear experts and advocates from Farmworker Justice and the Farmworker Association of Florida, who are working to advance regulations requiring national heat safety standards in both outdoor and indoor workplaces.

During this webinar, we’ll cover:

  • The human impact of extreme heat on farm workers
  • Why heat illness is a matter of justice—not just weather
  • The current regulatory fight and what the proposed OSHA standards would do
  • Simple actions you can take to support this critical effort

This webinar is for NFWM supporters, partners, and all who care about the safety and dignity of farm workers. Whether you’re new to the issue or a long-time advocate, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

Come learn. Come listen. And come ready to take action.
