They literally gave their lives for their jobs.
Each year, communities across Canada remember those who died at work with a day of mourning ceremony.
Labour activists started the nationally observed memorial in 1983.
The annual Squamish event will take place on Sunday, April 28 at 11 a.m. at the Pavilion Park Workers’ Monument, downtown.
The monument includes the names of fallen residents, including, among others, firefighters, loggers, and RCMP members.
Find the monument south of the Arts Council Building at the park.
“We invite all residents to join us in remembering those whom we’ve lost to tragic workplace accidents and disease," said Mayor Karen Elliott in a news release.
