April 28th is Workers Memorial Day, an annual remembrance of those killed or injured on the job. For Local 26 members and families, Workers Memorial Day is a reminder of the dangerous nature of the construction industry and the importance of good health. This year and every year, we honor those who lost their life on the job and remember those who are forced to live with jobsite injuries or illnesses.
EWTF considers itself a powerful tool in keeping our members safe and healthy on the job. The benefits offered by our health plan—from well visits and screenings to access to specialty physicians and our many partner providers, such as Virta, BHS, Hello Heart, Hinge Health, and others—work every day as partners in keeping our members healthy and safe. We believe that what you do off the jobsite to protect your good health goes a long way toward keeping you healthy on the job.
