Today, April 28th, is "World Day for Safety and Health at Work".

This day is part of an international campaign to encourage the global prevention of accidents and diseases. The main goal is to create a #safety culture in every office or workplace all around the world.

According to the International Labour Organization, every year there are approximately 340 million occupational accidents and 160 million sufferers of work-related diseases worldwide. Sadly, around 2.3 million women and men die each year as a result of work-related accidents or diseases.
