     International Labor Day, also known as "May Day" or "International Workers' Day" (International Workers' Day or May Day), is a national holiday in more than 80 countries in the world. It's on May 1 every year. It is a holiday shared by working people all over the world.


The origins of International Labour Day*

        International Labor Day originated from the workers' strike in Chicago, USA. The main reason is that capitalists increase the working hours of laborers to increase the working intensity in order to increase production profits. On May 1, 1886, with the city of Chicago as the center, large-scale marches and protests were held in the United States, demanding improved working conditions and the implementation of an eight-hour workday. In order to commemorate this great labor movement, in July 1889, the Second International led by Engels announced in Paris that May 1 every year would be designated as International Labor Day.


What is the meaning of International Labour Day?

    The significance of International Labour Day is that workers have achieved gratifying results through their struggles, and workers' working hours are generally shortened. It lies in the fact that the laborers have won their legitimate rights and interests through struggle and with a tenacious, heroic, and unyielding spirit of struggle, which is historic progress in human civilization and democracy.

How is International Labour Day celebrated now?

    In China, Japan, Egypt, South Africa, and other countries, May Day is a public holiday. In some countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and other countries, there are demonstrations on International Labour Day.



    International Labour Day is a day to commemorate the valuable contributions made by workers and the labor movement. Let's continue on Labor Day and thank them for their contributions every day. Happy International Labour Day everyone!
