Workers Memorial Day 2025

APRIL 28 -- Today, on Workers Memorial Day, we commemorate those transit workers who have died or suffered injuries or illnesses while on the job. We also recognize the sacrifices made by all essential workers on the front lines, and commit to the continued fight for strong safety and health protections.

As part of the broader labor movement, we come together with union members, advocates, and allies to demand safer workplaces, stronger enforcement of labor protections, and accountability for employers who put workers at risk. Today we stand in solidarity to ensure that no worker is forced to sacrifice their health or their life for a paycheck. Our jobs are dangerous. Safety must always be job one.
