International Workers' Memorial Day 28 April

Letter to The Guardian re: International Workers' Memorial Day

In 2008/09 180 workers died in accidents in British workplaces. Thousands more die from occupational diseases every year, like mesothelioma or cancers, and in workplace road accidents. Internationally, 2.2 million workers die annually as a direct result of their work.

These terrible figures explain why the Government has decided to officially recognise International Workers’ Memorial Day, which takes place every year on 28 April. It’s an opportunity to remember those whose lives have been needlessly cut short by their work, and to reflect on the loss suffered by their families. The day not only asks us to remember those who’ve died, but also to reflect on how we go about our work.

Health and safety is not just the preserve of ‘experts’ like me. It’s a team effort, and if one member of the team under performs the consequences can be dire for others.

I welcome the official recognition of Workers’ Memorial Day, and I urge people to spend a few minutes thinking about how they could make their workplace safer for everyone.

Yours sincerely,
