Fired Up! is powered by workers and COSH organizations organizing in communities across the country. From winning local protections and advancing state standards to confronting employers and organizing workers to take action, our affiliates are building the movement for heat justice from the ground up.
FROM LOCAL FIGHT TO NATIONAL POWER
ORGANIZE LOCALLY → CONNECT NATIONALLY → WIN PROTECTIONS
Workers are building power in communities across the country, and together we are turning local fights into national momentum. National COSH connects worker leaders and COSH organizations across states to share strategies and resources, amplify worker voices, coordinate collective action, and build the power needed to win strong, enforceable heat protections for every worker.
- Local campaigns: Workers organize for protections at the workplace, city and state level.
- National coordination: COSH groups share strategies, tools, lessons and opportunities for collective action.
- Worker leadership: Workers directly affected by extreme heat lead the public narrative and policy demands.
- Federal protections: Together, the network pushes for a strong OSHA heat standard and defends against efforts to weaken worker protections.
