Injured Workers' Monument Our new monument honours the memory of Ontario workers who have lost their lives as a result of workplace injury or disease. We commemorate their legacy as a catalyst for the promotion of occupational health and safety in Ontario. The monument has two parts: 100 Workers by John Scott consists of a series of 100 bronze plaques topping a granite wall. Each plaque represents a year between 1901 and 2000. The first 99 are each engraved with the name and cause of death of one worker who died that year. The year 2000 plaque is blank. John Scott received the first Governor General Award for Visual Arts in April 2000. Anonymity of Prevention by Derek Lo and Lana Winkler is a life-size sculpture that depicts a construction worker wearing proper safety equipment chiseling a message on the granite wall: “Remembering our past…building a safe future.” Derek Lo is a recent graduate of the Ontario College of Art and Design. Lana Winkler is an artist who believes art can be part of the very fabric of society. The WSIB's Board of Directors commissioned the memorial as a millennium project for Simcoe Park, Toronto. This monument serves as a daily reminder to all WSIB staff and to all Ontarians of our commitment to the prevention of workplace injury and illness.
