Farmworkers in the US are taking a stand for their safety and rights by developing their own heat safety standards! They’re creating programs to ensure fair wages, eliminate sexual harassment, and address other critical issues. As part of the Achieving Resilient Communities (ARC) project, ROC is working to protect farmworkers from heat stress with measures like guaranteed access to cold water. Together, we're building a safer, fairer, and more resilient agricultural community. :sun_with_face::droplet: #FarmworkerRights #HeatSafety #AchievingResilientCommunities #ProtectFarmworkers![]()
