Competitions and events were held at the station as part of the World Labor Protection Day.
April 28, 2025
The International Labour Organization (ILO) has declared April 28 as World Occupational Safety and Health Day, or World Workplace Safety and Health Day, in order to draw the attention of the world community to the scale of the problem, as well as to how the creation and promotion of a culture of occupational safety and health can help reduce annual deaths in the workplace. This day was first celebrated in 2003.
The idea of World Labor Protection Day originates from the Day of Remembrance of Dead Workers, first held by American and Canadian workers in 1989 in memory of workers who were injured or killed in the workplace.
Today, more than a hundred countries are holding events aimed at drawing public attention to unresolved labor protection issues. They are usually organized by local authorities, trade union organizations, employers' organizations, and occupational safety specialists.
