Workers’ Day of Mourning – April 28th, 2026

Every year on April 28th we pay our respects to, and remember, the thousands of workers who have been killed, injured or suffered illness as a result of work-related incidents. Every worker has the right to return home safe and sound at the end of each workday. Please take a moment to honour those workers and their families.
