The Workplace Overdose Reversal Kits (WORK) to Save Lives Act will require the Occupational Safety and Health Administration to issue guidance to employers regarding opioid overdose reversal medication attainment, usage, and training.
Support legislation requiring OSHA to issue guidance to employers on obtaining, maintaining, and training employees to use opioid overdose reversal medication.
Occurrences
The Secretary of Labor will, through OSHA, issue mandatory regulations for federal agencies on acquiring and maintaining opioid overdose reversal medication and train employees on an annual basis on the usage of such medication.
Evidence
The official homepage lists "May 29, 2026 Rep. Watson Coleman Reintroduces Worker Rights and Support Act" among the latest news items, but the visible snippet does not mention OSHA guidance or opioid overdose reversal medication.
The official legislation page lists H.R.9008 as sponsored by Watson Coleman: "To amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to require employers to allow employees to take meal, rest, restroom, and medical breaks, and for other purposes."
The official press-release listing says Watson Coleman reintroduced the Worker Rights and Support Act, requiring meal breaks, restroom breaks, and 20-minute breaks for medical conditions.
The official legislation page lists H.R.8911 as sponsored by Watson Coleman: "To amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to require employers to allow employees to take meal, rest, restroom, and medical breaks, and for other purposes."
The official homepage latest-news area lists recent items including votes, statements, letters, and field-hearing activity, but no visible item about OSHA opioid-overdose-reversal-medication guidance.
Assessments
The available evidence does not show that Bonnie Watson Coleman delivered this specific outcome. The cited official homepage item only shows a 2026 reintroduction of the Worker Rights and Support Act, and the visible material does not establish that the bill required OSHA to issue employer guidance on obtaining, maintaining, and training employees to use opioid overdose reversal medication. There is also no provided evidence that such legislation passed, that OSHA issued the promised guidance because of her action, or that she materially advanced this exact provision. On the current record, the promise cannot be scored as delivered, partial, or never with confidence.
