WORKERS MEMORIAL DAY 2013
Thursday, April 25, 2013 at 12:50PM Four decades ago, Congress passed the Occupational Safety and Health Act, promising every worker the right to a safe job. On April 28, we observe Workers Memorial Day to remember those who have suffered and died on the job and to renew the fight for safe workplaces.
