Every year on April 28 we pay our respects to, and remember, the workers who have been killed, injured or suffered illness as a result of work-related incidents.
Sadly, Alberta lost 161 people [PDF, 0.40MB] to workplace injury or illness in 2022.
On April 28, we remember. Take a moment to honour people like Lorelai, whose life was lost in a motor vehicle accident while on the job. Watch this video about Lorelai’s inspiring life as her mother, Sue, talks about the impact she made in her family and her community.
