Hispanic heritage month 2023

It’s Hispanic Heritage month once again. Honoring the contributions of Latinos to our country includes recognizing the hard work that they do daily.  In the fields, auto shops, warehouses, construction sites and elsewhere, Latinos hold up California’s economy with their labor.

They pay a high price for those efforts.  According to the Department of Industrial Relations, nearly half of all work deaths statewide are Latino as well as the majority of workplace injuries.

At the Workers Compensation court daily, their names ring out from the docket; Cortés, Vázquez, Garcia, Rodriguez.....  Injured workers whose surnames relate not only their heritage but their sacrifices for our communities.

In 2023 and historically, Hispanic heritage is a legacy of labor and sacrifice.  We honor their work, and recognize their enormous contributions to our country!

Representing injured workers.
