Education and Activism Opportunity!!

H and S community in Denver on Nov. 4-7

USMWF was able to bring 13 family members to attend the National COSH meeting the Health and Safety Summit and meet with an amazing team at the Denver OSHA office, Region 8 . The Denver visit was a very unique because USMWF members have never meet with a Labor Liaison or a Solicitor of Labor.  USMWF has enjoyed many events and meetings with OSHA offices but felt this particular visit was a good start for new relationships and very informative.

Workers Memorial Day

The History of Workers Memorial Day

A day of morning and remembrance of our lost loved ones. We reminisce and grieve for our loved ones throughout the year but we have some recognition and acknowledgement for the injured, ill and lost at work on April 28th. Canada adopted the “Day of Mourning” Bill C-223 in 1989 making them the first to observe a workers memorial day. After the Canadian movement the AFL-CIO as the national day adopted April 28th for Workers Memorial Day because it was the Occupational Safety and Heath Administration's anniversary date. Most recognize this day as an International Day of Mourning so as to acknowledge the injured along with the death of workers.
