DESCRIPTION:2014 SF Workers Memorial Day-Fighting For Health And Safety And Healthcare 
 For Injured Workers\nApril 28, 2014 7:00 PM\nILWU Local 34\n5 Berry 
 St./Next To AT&T Ball Park\nSan Francisco, CA\n\nWorkers Memorial Day San 
 Francisco\nRemember The Dead, Fight For The Living\n\nJoin injured workers, 
 health and safety advocates, healthcare advocates and others on Workers 
 Memorial Day in San Francisco on April 28, 2014. In California workers face 
 a more and more dangerous situation on the job with injuries and deaths 
 from workplace toxins and hazards. New technologies such as biotech and 
 nanotech are unregulated and workers union and unorganized who speak out 
 about health and safety are illegally retaliated against in many 
 workplaces.\nAt the same time, California has only 162 OSHA inspectors for 
 18 million workers and the state refuses to even hire more inspectors with 
 money that has already been appropriated. Ca-OSHA whistleblowers are now 
 speaking out about the need to defend Ca-OSHA to protect California workers 
 on the job.\nWorkplace bullying on the job is also creating more health 
 problems including depression which is now a larger part of workplace 
 injuries yet has been threatened by California  SB 863 which limits 
 compensation for these injuries.\nInjured workers also face a growing 
 crisis after they have to go through one obstacle course after another to 
 get their healthcare. Doctors who are not even licensed in California 
 operate through an outsourced company called Maximus which has anonymous 
 doctors giving determination about whether workers are able to get their 
 healthcare needs met.\nOn this day we will commemorate those workers killed 
 on the job and those workers and their families who are fighting for 
 healthcare and justice on the job.\n\nSponsored by\nInjured Workers
