Senate Resolution No. recognizes April 28, 2023, as Workers' Memorial Day in Louisiana, honoring workers who have been killed, injured, or disabled on the job. This observance stems from the establishment of the Occupational Safety and Health Act over thirty years ago, which aimed to ensure every worker's right to a safe workplace. The resolution highlights the importance of workplace safety, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, which underscored the connection between health and safety in the workplace and the broader community.

The resolution acknowledges the ongoing efforts of employment unions and advocates who strive for better job protections and safety measures to prevent workplace injuries and illnesses. It emphasizes the need to remember the victims of workplace tragedies and to renew commitments to improving safety standards, enforcement, and fair compensation for affected workers. The Senate calls for the observance of Workers' Memorial Day as a day of reflection and action towards enhancing workplace safety across the nation. A copy of the resolution will be sent to the president of the Louisiana AFL-CIO.
