Today, the Honourable Bernard Davis, Minister of Environment and Climate Change and Minister Responsible for Labour, is thanking workers in Newfoundland and Labrador for their efforts to build a strong workforce in the province.

Labour Day acknowledges the tireless efforts of workers who make valuable contributions to the economy, culture and society.

Labour Day, recognized each year in Canada on the first Monday of September, is a time to reflect and recognize the workforce as the backbone of our communities and thank them for the many worker protections and benefits all Canadians now benefit from.

Quote
“As Minister Responsible for Labour, it is an honour to recognize workers who demonstrate incredible resiliency every day. I wish everyone a safe Labour Day weekend and thank them for their commitment to having fair, safe and productive workplaces.”
Honourable Bernard Davis
Minister of Environment and Climate Change
