    "The birth of my son changed my life forever. His death did the same."

    Rob Ellis speaks out for young workers’ safety.

    “As I rushed to the hospital on a cold February day in 1999, my mind was flooded with fearful thoughts. The phone call said my son, David, had been injured during his second day of a temporary bakery job.
    I couldn’t have imagined that David wouldn’t be coming home - ever.”
