Desert worker sweats out the competition to win title of “Hottest Job in America”
A solar power plant worker in the Mojave Desert battles hot temperatures, and scores NFL tickets and heat stress products from Cintas and Sqwincher
Cintas Corporation (NASDAQ: CTAS), a leading provider of on-site safety services and training solutions, and The Sqwincher Corporation, a leader in electrolyte replacement drinks, today named Stephen Dean the winner of its “Hottest Job in America” contest. Dean endures temperatures upwards of 110 degrees Fahrenheit while constructing a solar power plant in the Mojave Desert. His story earned him two tickets to a 2014 season NFL game, Cintas moisture-wicking performance polos, cooling collars and a variety of Sqwincher products.
“Although the desert is a hot work environment, we follow a strict heat illness prevention plan to maximize safety,” said Dean. “With the help of Cintas and Sqwincher, my coworkers and I will be able to stay cool throughout the day and get home safely when we’re done.”
