Every year on April 28, we pay tribute to the workers who have lost their lives due to workplace incidents or industrial diseases. In 2025, 138 workers in British Columbia died from workplace injuries or diseases.
Local 480 will be hosting a Day of Mourning event on Tuesday, April 28. We invite all members, their families, and the community to join us in honoring those we have lost. The event will begin with a march from the Local 480 Hall at 3:45 pm, proceeding to the Workers Memorial Monument on Bay Avenue in Trail. A ceremony will follow at 4:00 pm.
