What is labor day? Labor Day in the United States is a public holiday celebrated on the first Monday in September. This day honors the American labor movement and the collective labor force of workers, who are considered essential to the functioning of society. The background of this day dates back to the nineteenth century in America, Canada and Australia in New York, 1882 AD. Years before the announcement of this day, Chicago in the nineteenth century was engaged in labor disputes to reduce working hours in Hamilton, especially in the movement known as the eight-hour movement.

From Australia was the beginning
The beginning of Labor Day was on April 21, 1856 in Australia, then moved to the United States of America, where workers in the state of Chicago in 1886 demanded a reduction in daily working hours to eight hours, and the request was repeated in California. In Toronto, Canada, American labor leader Peter McGuire attended a Labor Day celebration, so he transferred the idea and found the first Labor Day in the United States of America celebrated on September 5, 1882 in New York City. The labor struggle in Canada resulted in the Trade Union Act, which legalized labor and protected union activity in 1872. In American tradition, most Americans celebrate Labor Day as a symbol of the beginning of summer. The holiday is often a day of rest and parades. Political speeches or demonstrations are more restricted than May Day celebrations in most countries, and although events are organized by labor organizations, candidates for office often feature political themes, especially in election years. Celebrations include picnics, barbecues, fireworks displays, water sports, and public art events.Â

Families with school-age children see the holiday as a last chance to travel before the end of summer vacation. Similarly, some teens and young adults see it as the last weekend before returning to school. However, school start dates vary widely, with urban areas such as Atlanta, Miami, and Los Angeles starting on July 24. Additionally, Labor Day marks the start of the National Football League and college football seasons. The National Football League typically plays its first game the week before Labor Day, and the NFL plays its first game the Thursday after Labor Day.
