Remember the Dead, Fight for the Living
International Workers’ Memorial Day takes place across the world on the 28th April annually. In 2019 at least 21 commemorations took place in Scotland, the majority organised by Scotland's Trade Union Councils supported by the STUC and Scottish Hazards.
The day provides a focus for us all to remember those who have been killed at work, to provide support and comfort to their families and to commit to striving for healthier, safer and fairer work for all helping to ensure workers are not denied the basic human right of returning home to loved ones after their day’s work is done.
