Ontario creates Injured Workers Day on June 1 to honor and support workers hurt on the job.

Ontario has officially designated June 1 as Injured Workers Day after a private member's bill by NDP MPP Jamie West. The day aims to recognize the sacrifices of workers injured or made ill on the job and to ensure they receive necessary financial, medical, and psychological support. This designation marks the first official recognition since workers first gathered at Queen's Park in 1983. The first official day will be celebrated on June 1, 2025.
