International Workers' Memorial Day
Tuesday 28th April 2026 11am
Chesterfield FC Community Trust Memorial Garden
Please join us for a short reflection as we remember workers who have lost their lives, suffered injuries or become ill due to their jobs
International Workers' Memorial Day (IWMD) is a day of reflection and action, highlighting the importance of workplace health and safety. Trade unions, organisations, and communities around the world hold events such as vigils, commemorations, and campaigns to honour those affected and to push for stronger protections in the workplace.
The day serves as a reminder that workplace accidents and illnesses are often preventable, emphasising the need for employers, governments, and workers to collaborate in ensuring safer working conditions.
As we gather in remembrance, we acknowledge the past struggles of workers and reaffirm our commitment to fighting for safer workplaces today and in the future.
There will be refreshments served afterwards.
