In this podcast, Karen Tynan, the West Coast chair of the firm’s Workplace Safety and Health Practice Group, and Noel Hernandez from the firm’s Las Vegas office discuss Nevada’s newly adopted heat illness regulation. The regulation, which went into effect on November 15, 2024, applies to employers with more than ten employees and requires them to provide employee training and conduct a written job hazard analysis. Noel and Karen review the regulation’s trigger temperature and outline the responsibilities of employers, which include providing drinking water, scheduled rest breaks, and cooling measures. They also share valuable insights for Nevada employers affected by the new regulation.
