Workers killed in workplace accidents or by illnesses related to work are remembered every day. Workers with work-related injuries or illnesses are among the world's largest organizations staging events. Campaigns and workplace awareness activities may be held by some companies. Other activities, such as multi-faith religious services, laying wreaths, planting trees, and naming monuments, all raise public awareness of the issues. One of the most moving is the setting out of shoes to honor those who have died at work. The setting out of shoes is one of the most moving.
Transporation accounts for more work-place deaths than in any other occupation. Workplace violence (human and animal), slips and falls, contact with machinery and objects, and exposure to hazardous chemicals and environments are among the top four most common reasons for workplace deaths.
