It does not matter what the job is. Everyone has the right to go home safe at the end of the day. If we accept any worker as okay to be hurt, that line can be moved to include every worker if someone decides your work is immoral.
🖤 May Day means solidarity with ALL workers, including sex workers, incarcerated workers, undocumented workers, criminalized workers, and disabled workers.
When we say “an injury to one is an injury to all,” we’d better fucking mean it. 🖤

On Workers Memorial Day, America’s unions mourn the workers who have lost their lives or been injured or ill on the job.
Every worker should be able to go home at the end of the day safe and healthy, and we’ll keep fighting like hell to make that a reality for EVERY worker.

Firefighters risk their lives—not just in flames, but from cancer caused by toxic exposure on the job.
NIOSH’s Firefighter Cancer Registry tracked these cases to protect those who protect us.
