A house RESOLUTION

TO DECLARE MONDAY, APRIL 28, 2025, AS "WORKERS 
MEMORIAL DAY" IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND TO REMEMBER THE AMERICAN WORKERS WHO HAVE 
DIED, SUFFERED INJURY, OR SUFFERED ILLNESS AS A RESULT OF WORKPLACE CONDITIONS.

Whereas, the South 
Carolina House of Representatives is always saddened to learn of workers in the 
Palmetto State who die, are injured, or become ill due to workplace conditions; 
and

Whereas, concerned 
citizens are seeking to raise public awareness about these avoidable tragedies 
by observing Workers Memorial Day as a time to remember victims of workplace 
deaths, injuries, and illnesses; and

Whereas, every year, 
tens of thousands of American workers die from workplace injuries and from 
occupational diseases. Many more are injured or made ill; and

Whereas, more than five 
decades ago on Workers Memorial Day, the Occupational Safety and Health Act 
went into effect to protect the safety of American workers on the job; and

Whereas, the South 
Carolina House of Representatives encourages all South Carolinians to become 
aware of the continued need for safety and health protections in the American 
workplace, for standards and enforcement, and for fair and just compensation. Now, 
therefore,

Be it resolved by the House 
of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, declare 
Monday, April 28, 2025, as "Workers Memorial Day" in South Carolina and 
remember the American workers who have died, suffered injury, or suffered 
illness as a result of workplace conditions.
