Honor the dead, Fight for the Living! #WorkersMemorialDay

Each year on Workers’ Memorial Day, we remember those who left for work and never returned. Their absence is a solemn reminder of why we must never stop fighting for safer workplaces. Let’s honor their memory by committing to protect all working Americans. Read more from UAW President Shawn Fain: ow.ly/Uybh50YNC7X

"Mourn for the Dead, and Fight Like Hell for the Living." Today we honor the memory of fallen workers by demanding the safety standards every worker deserves. 🕯️✊

Every worker deserves a job where they feel safe and protected. This Workers Memorial Day and every day, AFSCME members are committed to building safer workplaces and a future where no job costs a life.

On #WorkersMemorialDay, we honor workers killed or injured on the job. We mourn, reflect, and recommit to our fight for safe workplaces, including every letter carrier's right to dignity and respect. 🔗 Learn more: nalc.org/news/the-posta…

Today we honor those brave workers we've lost on the job and recommit to fighting for safer workplaces and stronger protections for all. #WorkersMemorialDay

Today, we recommit to safer jobs and stronger protections. Because one injury is one too many. #WorkersMemorial #Safety #DayofMourning #WMD #recommit

On Workers Memorial Day, America’s unions mourn the workers who have lost their lives or been injured or made ill on the job. Every worker should be able to go home after their shift safe and healthy, and we’ll keep fighting like hell to make that a reality for every worker.

Community means everything — in good times, and the hard ones, too. We hope you’ll join us at the 73rd Annual Michigan AFL-CIO Community Services School to learn how to be a better community leader — in 2026 and beyond. Register today: uwmich.org/events/p/style…

Contract enforcement is a 24/7 job. If your rights are being violated, don't wait—call your steward. A contract is only as strong as our willingness to defend it. 📄🚫

Work zones change fast. Speeding and distraction make it worse. Stay alert. #DriveSmart #RespectTheZone
