Study finds restaurant workers face dangerous heat and pollution from gas stoves
Original: Restaurant workers are being exposed to dangerous heat and pollution from gas stoves: study https://www.fastcompany.com/
A new study finds that restaurant kitchen workers are routinely exposed to dangerous levels of heat and air pollution from commercial gas stoves, raising health concerns for a largely overlooked workforce. The findings add to growing scrutiny of gas cooking, which has already been debated over indoor air quality in homes, and could fuel calls for kitchen electrification and stronger workplace protections.
Why now: It follows ongoing public debate about the health risks of gas stoves, now extended to restaurant workers.
