Closing out #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth with an overlooked issue: workplace hearing loss.
It’s linked to depression, isolation, safety risks—and lower wages.

For union workers, hearing health = mental health.

Today, we honor workers who lost their lives on the job.

#WorkersMemorialDay reminds us that every labor protection was won through sacrifice — and that safety must never be optional.

We stand with unions and working families to remember and recommit to protecting workers.

[Blue Cross Blue Shield National Labor Office @BlueLabor]

Each tragedy reshaped worker safety at a devastating cost. We remember so we can protect workers today.
