Abstract
The article discusses the impact of climate change on outdoor workers, linking it to the development of Chronic Kidney Disease of Non-Traditional Etiology (CKDnt). Topics discussed include the association of heat stress with CKDnt, disparities faced by low-income and undocumented workers in accessing healthcare, and the importance of routinely collecting occupational history data to address this health issue.
