Workers’ Mourning Day or the National Day of Mourning occurs on April 28 each year in Canada. This day serves to commemorate workers who lost their lives, suffered an injury, or became sick due to their occupation or a work-related incident. This day is also meant to spread awareness about workplace dangers and advocate for better workers’ rights and protections.
Recognition of this day officially began on April 28, 1991, when Canada passed the Workers Mourning Day Act. It has since gained popularity around the globe, and over 100 countries now observe the holiday. Workers’ Mourning Day is not the only day when we should think about workplace hazards and how to prevent them. All citizens need to vote for politicians who support legislation that enforces safe workplace practices.
