Join us on Workers Memorial Day to memorialize workers who lost
lives or were injured on the job. We will release the results of our
preliminary Central MN Poultry Workers Survey, highlighting evident occupational health and safety violations. Bathroom Breaks, Line Speed, Unfair Firing Practices, and Religious Discrimination are major concerns for GNP workers. #Fight4theLIVING

Workers’ Memorial Day is observed every year on April 28. It is a day to honor those workers who have died on the job, to acknowledge the grievous suffering experienced by families and communities, and to recommit ourselves to the fight for safe and healthful workplaces for all workers. It is also the day OSHA was established in 1971. Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, employers are responsible for providing safe and healthful workplaces for their workers. OSHA’s role is to ensure these conditions for America’s working men and women by setting and enforcing standards, and providing training, education and assistance.
