April 27, 2008 at Davis, California
Injured workers, their families and health and safety advocates spoke out on April 27, 2008 in Davis, California.
One of the focuses was on the biotech industry and biotech worker David Bell. Bell was infected at Agraquest laboratory and the owner Pam Marrone refused to take responsibility for his injuries.
This Workers Memorial Day was initiated by California Coalition For Workers Memorial Day (CCWMD)
On April 28, 2007, Workers Memorial Day in Sacramento, injured workers and their family members spoke out about workers who have been killed or injured on the job, and workers who face a nightmare trying to get medical care, post SB899. Workers also discussed the need to have anti-bullying legislation statewide. Bullying in the workplace is a growing problem and many workers have had their lives destroyed through this type of workplace environment. The memorial event was organized by a coalition of organizations and was part of the California Coalition For Workers Memorial Day.
