National Day of Mourning

Today we observe National Day of Mourning. We remember the thousands of workers who have died, were injured, or suffered illness on the job or due to a work-related incident. We also honour the families, friends and co-workers whose lives are forever changed by these events.

Collectively, we can prevent worker injuries and deaths before they occur. We commit to protecting workers and preventing workplace tragedies as everyone has the right to return home safe at the end of each workday.
