On 28 April, the International Day of Mourning, we pause to remember those who have lost their lives in a workplace incident or dust disease. It is an opportunity to reflect on our ongoing commitment to protect workers and improve workplace safety.

SafeWork NSW and Unions NSW will hold a memorial service for families and friends to remember their loved ones, with political and religious leaders providing words of comfort and support. A family member will also share their story.

This year, the service will be held on Monday 29 April (details below).

icare invites families and friends who have lost a loved one to attend the service, and you may wish to place a photo or message on the Memorial Lines sculpture. A light lunch will be held immediately after the service at a nearby venue. If you would like to attend the lunch, you can register below.
