In addition, the union is encouraging wide public support. It invites workers, families, and community members to join. By doing so, it hopes to build stronger unity.

Overall, the schedule blends advocacy and celebration. First comes the rally, then the march, and finally the beach event.

In conclusion, the 4 May activities promise energy and purpose. They will bring the community together while keeping workers’ issues front and centre.
