On April 28, your union encourages you to join thousands across this province in observing the National Day of Mourning for workers killed or injured on the job.
On this day, we come together to remember workers killed, injured, or suffering from illness because of unsafe conditions at work. We come together to help create safer workplaces so workers can end their working lives in dignity and health – not premature injury, disease or death.
We remember lost and injured co-workers, friends and family members while renewing our commitment to safer workplaces under the slogan, “Remember the dead. Fight for the living.”
Please also join us in helping to prevent injury and illness on the job by:- Reporting unsafe or hazardous conditions to your employer;
- Advising your joint health & safety committee (JH&SC) worker member(s) of any such conditions in your workplace;
- Raising awareness by participating in a Day of Mourning event. Click here to find out more about a Day of Mourning event in your region.
If you have any health and safety issues that you need assistance with, please contact the union office and ask to be connected to the Health and Safety department.
