Every year more people are killed at work than in wars. Most don't die of mystery ailments, or in tragic "accidents". They die because an employer decided their safety just wasn't that important a priority. International Workers’ Memorial Day (IWMD) 28 April commemorates those workers.

On Saturday the 30th April 2022 at 11am, we will hold a Workers Memorial Day Event in Corby at the STEELWORKER STATUE James Ashworth VC Square, Outside The Cube CORBY, Northants, more information below:

This event is Cancelled due to coronavirus

Picture
Every year the branch commemorates Workers Memorial Day (info on 2019 event is here).  This year we will be holding it on Saturday April 25th at 11.00am next to the steelworker statue in Corby town centre or in the Corby Cube if the weather is bad.

We have speakers and invite other unions to attend. 

We also present a cheque to the Mesothelioma Research Fund which does a lot of good work helping those who have contracted this killer disease, usually caused by breathing asbestos at work, and funding research into a cure. We raised over £2000 for the fund last year and over the past few years we raised over £15000.

We will add more information about this years event soon

Steelworkers Statue CorbySteelworkers Statue Corby
Corby International Workers Memorial Day Commemoration event happened on Saturday the 28th April 2018. We had hoped to hold the event outside beside the Steelworker statue at The Cube, Corby; however the weather got the better of us and the event took place in the Council Chambers inside The Cube. 

Workers Memorial Day is an annual event that commemorates the tragic deaths of workers in the workplace, all over the world workers and their representatives conduct events, demonstrations, vigils and a whole host of other activities to mark the day. The day is also intended to serve as a rallying cry to:
“remember the dead, but fight for the living”
