由于安全法执行不力,加利福尼亚州农场工人仍然死于与热相关的死亡。 California farmworkers still suffer heat-related deaths due to lax enforcement of safety laws.

尽管加利福尼亚州有20年的《热安全法》,但由于执法不力,农场工人继续患热病并死于热病。 Despite a 20-year-old heat safety law, California farmworkers continue to suffer and die from heat illness due to inadequate enforcement. Cal/OSHA, 国家工作场所安全局, 往往没有施加惩罚, 即使在工人死亡的情况下。 Cal/OSHA, the state’s workplace safety agency, often fails to impose penalties even in cases of worker deaths. 倡导者和立法者认为,执法制度不够充分,因为许多没有证件的农业工人担心如果他们投诉会遭到报复和驱逐。 Advocates and lawmakers argue that the enforcement system is insufficient, with farmworkers, many of whom are undocumented, fearing retaliation and deportation if they complain.
