Today, we celebrate the people whose hard work helps build stronger communities, workplaces, and futures.
A little Labor Day history: The holiday grew out of the labor movement of the late 19th century, when workers organized for better working conditions, fairer hours, and safer workplaces. The first Labor Day celebration was held in New York City in 1882, and in 1894, it became a national holiday in the United States.
So today, we honor the contributions of workers—past and present—and the progress made through determination, solidarity, and hard work.
Happy Labor Day!
