Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what plans she has to mark National Workplace Day of Remembrance 2020 in Parliament.

Every year on 28 April the Health and Safety Executive joins with the Trade Union Congress and others to mark International Workers’ Memorial Day. The event remembers all those who have lost their lives at work, or from work-related injury and diseases. Workers Memorial Day is commemorated throughout the world and is officially recognised by the UK Government.

The Health and Safety Executive welcomes any initiatives that will raise awareness of this important topic and help to reduce work related ill health, injury and death in the workplace.
