Tuesday 28 April 2009 International Workers Memorial Day 2009 Rally 10 am, Trades Hall, Lygon St Carlton South Eleven Victorian workers have already died at work in 2009. It is expected that many more workers will be injured or made ill from their work before this year is through. Every year more people are killed at work than in wars. Most don't die of mystery ailments, or in tragic "accidents". They die because an employer decided their safety just wasn't that important a priority. Workers’ Memorial Day commemorates those workers. Worker’s Memorial Day is held on 28 April every year, all over the world workers and their representatives conduct events, demonstrations, vigils and a whole host of other activities to mark the day. The day is also intended to serve as a rallying cry to “remember the dead, but fight like hell for the living”.

Iran: Protest intensified repression against labour activists - No to whippings and executions! Sousan Razani and Shiva Kheirabadi.

Repression against labour activists in Iran is intensifying. In recent weeks, there have been numerous cases of arrests and jailings. Most shocking perhaps was the sentencing of two women labour activists (Sousan Razani and Shiva Kheirabadi) to 15 lashes and four months in prison -- for the "crime" of participating in a May Day celebration.

Additional cases which concern us include: Mr. Abdullah Khani, 40 lashes and 91 days in prison Mr. Seyed Qaleb Hosseini, 50 lashes and 6 months in prison Mr. Khaled Hosseini, 30 lashes and suspended prison sentence Mr. Farzad Kamangar, a Kurdish teacher, sentenced to death Mr. Afshin Shams, arrested Mr. Mansour Osanloo, leader of Tehran's bus workers, in prison since July 2007 We call on the Iranian government to immediately release these prisoners and to cease all repression of labour activists.
