La Isla Network has issued a call to action to protect workers from extreme heat and to prevent and control occupational illnesses and injuries driven by extreme heat.
Attention around the world is focusing on heat waves that are unprecedented and increasing in frequency, duration and intensity. Workers are the canaries in the coal mine that is our warming world. La Isla Network believes that the time to adapt to changing climates is now. Protecting workers is of principal importance.
The health, economic and human rights of workers are the imperatives that impel us as global citizens to act.
La Isla Network is the leading global research nonprofit and consultancy dedicated to improving the resiliency of workforces and supply chains in the face of changing climates.
