Requires the commissioner of labor to develop instructional tools and materials for occupations at high-risk of tick exposures
What changed between versions
The target group for safety training was changed from broad 'industries' to specific 'occupations,' with a new list explicitly including farmers, farm workers, and other agricultural employees.
The requirement for the commissioner of labor to consult with other agencies was updated to specifically include the commissioner of agriculture and markets, replacing the previous reference to the commissioner of health.
The purpose of the educational materials was refined to 'complement' an existing public awareness campaign rather than just assisting with a program, clarifying the relationship between the new materials and current efforts.
A new subsection was added to provide a clear, itemized list of occupations considered at high-risk for tick exposure, removing ambiguity about who must receive the training.
