Every year on May 1st, the world comes together to celebrate International Labour Day, also known as May Day. This day pays tribute to the hardworking individuals whose dedication shapes economies and communities across the globe. It’s not just about recognition—it’s about empowering workers to know and stand up for their rights.
Originating from the 1886 movement for an eight-hour workday, marked by the historic and tragic Haymarket Affair in Chicago, Labour Day symbolizes the ongoing fight for fair wages, safe working conditions, and social justice.
In India, Labour Day has been observed since 1923, reminding us of the importance of protecting workers’ rights and dignity.
Let’s honour the progress made and acknowledge the challenges still faced by workers everywhere. Join the conversation, support workers’ rights, and stand for fairness.

Hm.
