Company forces security guard to wear full uniform in a heat wave, faces consequences of his compliance: 'On a good day, it was 140°+ in the box'

When it comes to the concerns of any company, employee safety should be pretty darn near the top of the list. You aren't going to be able to shake down your workers for every last ounce of productivity they have if you actively help them come to harm. Nonetheless, this doesn't stop some businesses from taking dangerous liberties with employee wellbeing. There are lawsuits waiting to happen almost everywhere if you care to look.

To nobody's surprise, those who work in the lowest-paid roles are often the most at risk for these kinds of unacceptable practices. If both companies and employees aren't careful, they can become cautionary tales against stupid management decisions and what happens when these orders are followed. In the worst scenarios, it can be somebody's life on the line because of unreasonable expectations as to what the working practices should be. The consequences are generally unpleasant ones.
