On April 28, we remember those who lost their lives because of their work and we campaign to protect the safety, health and lives of all working people. Agriculture is one of the most dangerous industries to work in and has the highest rate of fatal accidents. Hundreds of thousands of agricultural workers die every year from acute pesticides poisoning and other employment related diseases. Millions of them work excessive hours and do not have access to safe drinking water and water for sanitation. They work in heat, in cold, in rain and sun.
