Bill > S3812

This bill, known as the Workplace Overdose Reversal Kits to Save Lives Act or the WORK to Save Lives Act, aims to address the opioid crisis by requiring the Secretary of Labor, through the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), to take specific actions regarding opioid overdose reversal medication in workplaces. Within 270 days of the bill's enactment, the Secretary must issue non-mandatory guidance for employers on how to obtain and keep opioid overdose reversal medication, which is a medication that can reverse the effects of an opioid overdose, and how to train employees annually on its use. The bill also mandates that the Secretary issue regulations requiring all Federal agencies to acquire and maintain this medication and to train their employees annually on its usage, with a Federal agency being any part of the Federal Government, including the Veterans Health Administration.
