From April 25 to April 28, join us at a ceremony across Ontario to commemorate the National Day of Mourning for those killed or injured on the job. This day honours those we have lost because of workplace illness, injury and tragedy, as well as serves as a stark reminder of the fight ahead of us to ensure workers are kept safe and employers are held accountable.
