The statement read, “The chamber applauds all workers in Nigeria for their effort, hard work, and dedication toward the national economic growth and development of the country.

 

“To mark the occasion, I urge the federal government to continually create a friendly working environment for the Nigerian workers and provide the necessary materials and resources needed for an efficient and effective workforce,” he said.

 

The theme of the 2024 celebration is “Safety and Health at Work in a Changing Climate”.
