WORKERS' MEMORIAL DAY (EDM1381)

WORKERS' MEMORIAL DAY

EDM number 1381 in 2006-07, proposed by Kelvin Hopkins on 30/04/2007.

That this House notes with sadness that in the UK the number of deaths at work per year is estimated to be in the thousands, taking into account those caused by road traffic accidents while at work and occupational ill-health; acknowledges that through the campaigning of workers and trade unions, many nations recognise 28th April as Workers' Memorial Day; and urges the Government to respond to the request of UNISON and the TUC that it formally recognise Workers' Memorial Day on 28th April as a national day of remembrance for those who are killed and injured whilst carrying out their work.

This motion has been signed by a total of 54 MPs.
