Worker’s Memorial Day

Workers Memorial Day

On April 28, the labor movement will once again observe Workers Memorial Day to remember workers killed, injured or made ill on the job. This year, our theme builds on the labor movement’s long history of fighting for safe jobs and focuses on growing together: “Organize! Safe Jobs Now.” Safety at work is at the top of the list of why workers form and join unions—and there is so much organizing yet to be done. 

Let us know what your local is doing in observance this year and what we can do to help.

We urge you to get involved this Workers Memorial Day: Organize observances to remember those who have been killed and injured on the job, and take action to demand safer working conditions, protect the right of every worker to a safe job and fight until that promise is fulfilled.
