International Workers’ Day 2024

On May 1st, CUPE Nova Scotia observes International Workers’ Day, also known as May Day. This day is meant to celebrate the hard fought victories of the labour movement’s past, the benefits of which are still enjoyed by millions of workers today. May Day also reminds us of the work that has yet to be done, and strengthens our resolve in pursuit of improved labour rights, equity, and economic justice. ✊ https://cupe.ca/event/may-day-international-workers-day #MayDay #Solidarity

2024 Day of Mourning

CUPE Nova Scotia will solemnly observe the National Day of Mourning this Sunday, April 28th. 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. May reflecting upon these tragedies remind us that the fight for workplace safety remains a crucial matter for the labour movement, and that heightening public awareness of this issue should be one of our biggest priorities. The following ceremonies will be held in various locations around the province. We encourage our members to attend where possible.
