Na Austrália sindicatos de trabalhadores focam as manifestações do dia 28 de abril em campanha pela criminalização de mortes ocorridas em locais de trabalho.
A ação divulga cartaz, criou página no Facebook e tem petição em favor de mudança na legislação. Vejam links abaixo
Following the event, the VTHC invites those present to attend a forum at which our Industrial Manslaughter campaign will be discussed. It's shameful that employers whose negligent actions lead to the deaths of workers get off with just a fine. If you are not able to attend either the ceremony or the campaign meeting, arrange something in your workplace. You can download a copy of our poster here [pdf].

Dia Internacional em memória das vítimas de acidentes do trabalho. Eventos e recursos criados
IWMD - International events and resources
As International Workers' Memorial Day approaches, lots of new resources have become available to help union safety reps promote the global event. A striking - and free - 'Unions make work safer' poster has been produced by the national Hazards Campaign. In addition, the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC), which coordinates the world's biggest workplace safety campaign day internationally, has produced 28 April posters in English, French and Spanish versions. They note: "Worldwide, working conditions kill a worker every 11 seconds. Every death is avoidable. There is the knowledge, there is the technology, there just isn't the will. Union organisation is the antidote." Writing in the new edition of Hazards magazine, ITUC general secretary Sharan Burrow notes unions will be reinvigorating its global safety campaign. "Work shouldn't be dangerous. We should be making things, not making orphans," she says. "Our strategy will use the full union rep tool box – from negotiation, to representation, to action – to organise for decent, safety and healthy work."
