 Worker\n\nMusic, Stories, Education, Solidarity\n\nJoin with the Injured 
 Workers National Network IWNN.org and California Coalition For Workers 
 Memorial Day to commemorate those workers killed on the job this past year 
 and those injured workers fighting for health and safety and  healthcare 
 and  justice for injured workers. From Bangladesh where over 125 mostly  
 women garment workers  perished last year to workers who are being killed 
 and injured on the job in the US, workers health  and safety is under 
 threat. There is also an epidemic of workplace bullying on the job that is 
 harming the health of many workers.\n\nHealth and safety in California is 
 also in a state of grave danger with only 160 Cal-Osha inspectors for 
 California's 18 million workers. The recent fire and explosion in Chevron 
 has exposed the complete lack of health and safety protection of not only 
 the workers but the communities that have been contaminated and continue to 
 be contaminated.\n\nWe also need to fight to defend health and safety 
 whistleblowers. Workers are regularly retaliated against from the oil 
 refineries and nuclear plants to many other jobs simply for standing up for 
 health and safety protections yet the bosses go off scot free with no 
 accountability.\n\nInjured workers now must submit their cases to secret 
 medical boards with no appeal and vocational rehabilitation has been 
 completely eliminated. Injured workers, health and safety advocates, trade 
 unionists and all working people and the public must stand up for a safe 
 workplace environment.\n\nSponsored by\nCalifornia Coalition For Workers 
 Memorial Day\nwww.workersmemorialday.org\nInjured Workers National 
 Network\nwww.iwnn.org\nhttps://www.facebook.com/pages/Injured-Workers-National-Network-IWNN/108362552680848?fref=ts\nFor 
 information call (415)282-1908\n\nAlso speak out at the next meeting of the 
 Commission on Health and Safety and Workers Commission  Thursday May 2,
