International Workers’ Memorial Day (IWMD) will be marked at events across the country on Friday 28 April 2017. Listings can be found on the STUC’s website.
Should you wish to know more about the background to IWMD and to get ideas for organising, read this flier prepared by Greater Manchester Hazards Centre and watch their new film.
If you’re preparing speeches/materials for IWMD, make sure you tell “The Whole Story” on work-related injury, deaths and illness, by using the details contained in this presentation, again prepared by GMCH.
Details of how to obtain resources such as purple forget-me-knot ribbons, “Union Workplaces are Safer Workplaces” car stickers, posters, stickers, etc is available in this leaflet.
Can we ask that you send photos of your events to Ian Tasker @ the STUC – itasker@stuc.org.uk and to us at Scottish Hazards using info@scottishhazards.org .
