When is World Security Day?
April 28th is "World Safety Production and Health Day", that is, "World Safety Day".

There is no specific day in a week, and every year is different.

The origin of festivals

The idea of setting up World Safety and Health Day at Work originated from Workers' Day. Memorial Day was first initiated by American and Canadian workers in 1989. It commemorates the dead and wounded workers on April 28th every year.

The International Confederation of Free Trade Unions and the Global Confederation of Trade Unions have developed it into a global activity and expanded its scope to every workplace. More than 65,438,000 countries in the world have recognized the International Day of Remembrance for Disabled Workers.

On World Day 2005, the ILO encouraged the government, workers' organizations and employers' organizations to take actions within their power to raise their awareness of the theme of accident and disease prevention. At the same time, encourage every worker who is engaged in labor to seriously consider their work practice and determine whether preventive measures can avoid injuries and diseases. Not only on April 28th, but also every day.

ILO firmly believes that work-related accidents and diseases can and should be prevented, and all countries and enterprises in the world must take action to achieve this goal.

On the one hand, it is necessary to formulate appropriate occupational safety and health laws and act according to the law. Labour inspectors play a key role in this regard. On the other hand, the content of occupational safety and health can be better incorporated into vocational training courses and enterprise training plans, so as to truly and successfully reduce work-related accidents and diseases. Prevention here refers to the core concept of preventive safety and health culture.
