Today is International Workers’ Memorial Day (IWMD) Every year, more people are killed at work than in wars. They die because an employer decided their safety just wasn't that important a priority. IWMD commemorates those workers. Join a union. tuc.org.uk/joinunion #IWMD21

It was incredibly moving to visit the National Covid Memorial wall. This Wednesday on International Workers’ Memorial Day, let’s recommit ourselves to never forgetting the sacrifice and the death of those we have lost around the world, and to fight for the living #IWMD21

Tomorrow is International Workers' Memorial Day. There are many ways to be involved. See below for some ideas. #IWMD21 tuc.org.uk/how-you-can-ta…
