Moray Council marks International Workers' Remembrance Day

International Workers' Remembrance Day (IWMD) is being marked in Moray with flags being lowered at Moray Council headquarters in Elgin.

The internationally recognized day, April 28 is a time to remember those who have lost their lives at work, or from work-related injuries and illnesses. It is time to renew efforts to prevent more work-related deaths, injuries or illnesses.

This year Moray Council of Trade Unions is focusing on a local theme of ending violence and aggression against workers for IWMD 2024.

Flags at Moray Council HQ will be flown at half-mast from Friday 26 April to Monday 29 April in honour.

Moray Council's Civic Leader, Cllr John Cowe, said: Today, we come together to remember those who have lost their lives as a result of their work. Something that no one has to think about and a subject that is very raw in the minds of people in Moray this year.

International Workers' Day is commemorated around the world and allows us to re-evaluate and ensure that all workers have access to safe working environments.

Chairwoman of Moray Trades Union Council, Susan Slater, said: No worker should have to face violence or aggression simply to do their job.

Sadly, we know from our partner unions that violence and aggression is a growing problem, with some workers even beginning to feel it is part of their job.

We encourage all workers to report incidents through the appropriate channels and seek help from their union if they feel they are not being handled properly.

Workers' Remembrance Day in Moray is particularly poignant this year following the tragic death of Keith Rollinson while at work at Elgin bus station.

We as a community must come together to ensure that such events never happen again.
