The USW is joining with unions and social-justice organizations around the world to mark the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence. From Nov. 25 until Dec. 10 – including Dec. 6, the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women – we amplify our demand for an end to the violence.

The recognition of their wrongs and the long-waited apology from the government is justice for workers and their families. The Steelworkers union is committed to continue supporting and advocating for workers exposed to occupational illnesses and diseases.
