2017 Workers’ Memorial Day
Anshe Emeth Memorial Temple 222 Livingston Ave, New BrunswickWorkers’ Memorial Day is a time to remember those who died on the job or suffered workplace injuries, while raising awareness to prevent future illnesses, injuries and deaths. Respect for health and safety is respect for ALL workers. Especially now, we need to stand together and demand safe workplaces, and the right to organize. We reject the unsafe and unconstitutional idea that two (or even one) regulations should be removed to implement new safeguards. Join us to demand safe workplaces for all! ¡SOS! Save Our Safeguards! ¡Salvar Nuestras Salvaguardas! Rain OR Shine!
