How Do You Celebrate Labor Day?

Labor Day is a holiday celebrated in the U.S. the first Monday in September. It is a day off for most workers and often celebrated with picnics, athletic events and parades. But what is Labor Day—why was it established? I never think too much about it other than it means a nice long weekend off work!

Labor Day is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers and is a tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country. It was first celebrated in 1882 and became a federal holiday in 1894. It also marks the unofficial end of summer for many people in the U.S..

In the 1800’s many workers put in 12 hours days 7 days a week. In some states children as young as 6 worked in mills and factories. Many workers faced unsafe working conditions and in some jobs had no access to fresh air, sanitary bathrooms or breaks during their long days. Many years ago, Labor Day was established as the working man’s holiday.

Enjoy your Labor Day weekend and also celebrate our much improved working conditions.
