This episode dives into the often-overlooked health impacts of working in retail, especially the conditions lurking behind the scenes in stock rooms. From dust-covered vents to hidden mold and construction , these environments can take a serious toll on the physical well-being of associates. Beyond the polished counters and luxury displays, the reality is that poor air quality and neglected maintenance create long-term challenges for those who keep the retail world running. Join Hilary as she sheds light on these hidden hazards, shares real experiences from behind the counter, and asks why worker health always seems to fall to the bottom of the priority list. This Topic I will expand on more going forward as this is just a small part of what our bodies deal with working in Retail.
