Killed On The JobSeventy-five workers who died in work-related accidents in Oregon last year will be remembered at a special noontime ceremony Monday, April 28, at the State Capitol, marking the 14th anniversary of Workers Memorial Day. Nationally, Workers Memorial Day remembers the nearly 6,000 workers killed each year at work, another 50,000 who die from occupational diseases and millions more who are injured. And every April the national AFL-CIO renews its fight for safer workplaces. The first Workers Memorial Day was observed in 1989. April 28 was chosen because it is the anniversary of the Occupational Safety and Health Act and the day of a similar remembrance in Canada. This year marks the 33rd anniversary of the passage of the federal act, which promised every American worker the right to a safe job. And the fight to protect workers is getting harder. That's because, according to the national AFL-CIO, the Bush Administration has joined with business groups to roll back, block or stall many of the needed protections. After repealing OSHA's ergonomics standard, the Administration halted work on dozens of new safety and health standards and ignored important hazards. Ergonomic hazards cripple and injure more than 1.8 million workers each year and remain the nation's biggest job safety and health problem. The Administration also has proposed cutting OSHA's budget and slashing funding for job safety research. Meanwhile, it continues a pro-business stance, stacking advisory committees with management representatives and even shutting workers and unions out of OSHA's voluntary programs.
