“100 Workers”
is a monument commemorating the workers of Ontario who died in the workplace. A selection of actual incidents, one from each of the years between 1901 and 2000 has been chosen to honour workers who have lost their lives in workplace accidents. An open plaque at the east end signifies the accident that has not yet happened.

This piece serves as a reminder of the tragedies and aims to provide a message of hope and prevention in the future.
