My Calendar

This day is set aside to remind all of us of our responsibilities to do all we can to be safe and healthy at our places of work wherever they are!  We all have a role to play:

• governments are responsible for providing appropriate laws and services - including inspections to ensure compliance;
• employers  are responsible for ensuring that the working environment is safe and healthy;
• workers we are responsible to work safely and to protect ourselves and not to endanger others.

A PRAYER FOR TODAY (available here as a 1:00 video)

Loving God,

who, on the 7^th day of creation - demonstrated the importance of rest and appreciation of a job well done,

give us wisdom to know when to work and when to rest;

help us be hardworking and industrious;

while being calm and mindful of the physical and mental health of ourselves and others.

Help us to be safe in our work practices and to appreciate our own worth – as well as those we work with.  

And where difficult conversations need to take place – give us words that will result in just and compassionate outcomes.

We pray this in your holy name.  AMEN
