Workers’ Memorial Day
Workers' Memorial Day, each year, promotes national and international recognition and intervention for workers killed, injured, injured, or sick by their work. Remember the dead – Fight for the living. International Workers' Memorial Day (ICD) for Dead and Injured or Day of Mourning is also known as International Workers' Memorial Day or International Commemoration Day (ICD) for Dead and Injured or Day of Mourning.
Workers killed in workplace or by illnesses related to work are remembered every day. Workers who suffer from work-related injuries or illnesses are honoured at international conferences. Any businesses may host campaigns and workplace awareness activities. Public awareness of issues such as multi-faith religious services, wreath-laying wreaths, planting trees, and unveiling monuments are among the many ways that public knowledge of the subject is being raised. One of the most moving is the setting out of shoes to honor those who have died at work.
Transporation leads to more work-place deaths than in any other occupation. The next four most common reasons for workplace deaths are workplace violence (human and animal), slips and falls, contact with machinery and objects, and exposure to hazardous chemicals and environments. However, these four cause more workplace deaths per year than transportation alone. Agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting are among the top most dangerous occupations in the United States.
This day also highlights the preventable cause of the majority of workplace injuries and illnesses. In addition,, it promotes the fight for workplace safety advancements.
