UPHOLD CURRENT AGREED LIVERPOOL CITY COUNCIL PLANS FOR A DEDICATED IWMD MEMORIAL PLAQUE IN LIVERPOOL AND REMOVE CURRENT INSTRUCTIONS FROM THE LCRCA FORBIDDING INSTALLATION OF THIS ALREADY DESIGNED, AGREED AND PAID FOR PLAQUE
Why is this important?
Every year on 28th April, all around the world the trade union movement and worker organisations unite to mark International Workers Memorial Day (#IWMD).
We remember those who lost their lives at work, or from work-related injury and diseases. We renew our efforts to organise collectively to prevent more deaths, injuries and disease as a result of work.
This plaque would be the first of its kind in Liverpool dedicated to ALL workers who have lost their lives because of work.
It would provide a central meeting point in Liverpool on each and every 28th April where people gather to remember lost loved ones and work colelagues & renew the IWMD pledge.
This agreed plaque reads as follows:
IN RESPECTFUL REMEMBERANCE OF ALL THOSE KILLED AT WORK OR THROUGH FAILURE OF RESPONSIBILITY-REMEMBER THE DEAD AND FIGHT FOR THE LIVING IWMD 2021
“THOSE WHO PUT PROFIT ABOVE WORKER SAFETY SHOULD NEVER GO UNCHALLENGED” TONY MULHEARN IWMD 2019
