Occupational injuries and illnesses are a preventable workplace epidemic that continues to cost tens of thousands of lives and impact many working families in . On the Day of Mourning, Prevention Link stands with Ontarians to honour those we’ve lost, support those who’ve been injured, and recommit to making every workplace safer.

One workplace death or injury is one too many. Occupational health and safety is everyone’s responsibility, and we must collaboratively strengthen our resolve to ensure every Ontario worker gets home safe.

🕯️We encourage organizations, employees, communities, and individuals to observe a moment of silence at 11 a.m. on April 28 or join a commemorative event in your community if you can.

One of the most significant challenges for people with disabilities returning to work is the process of reintegrating into the workplace.

Did you know that after completing Level 2, you are eligible to take any of our advanced courses in any order? Dive deep into Return to Work (RTW) by taking Level 4, but hurry up, we extended the deadline until April 27! 👉https://www.preventionlink.ca/event/level-4-return-to-work-in-person-4/
