2025 National Day of Mourning

On Monday, April 28th, CUPE Nova Scotia will solemnly observe the National Day of Mourning for workers killed or injured at their workplace. On this day each year, we pause to mourn the lives lost in the workplace and acknowledge the injuries and illnesses acquired by workers while on the job.
