The bilingual event (Spanish and English) will include a special tribute to our frontline and essential workers who continue to risk their lives in the battle against the Covid-19 pandemic,\u00a0including five essential workers who \u00a0passed away from Covid-19 and were likely exposed to the virus on the job. Our event will close with a call to action for stronger workplace health and safety protections so that one day we will no longer need to hold this event.<\/p>\n

The event will be broadcast via Facebook Live from the MassCOSH Facebook page. To be notified when the livestream begins, please\u00a0RSVP on Facebook<\/a>. And please invite your friends, families, coworkers and comrades to join with workers across the world in honoring all who needlessly died on the job.<\/p>\n
