Labour Day: Recognizing Worker Rights & Safer Working Conditions

Labour Day would not be what it is today without the hard work and dedication of trade unions. They played a crucial role in advocating for workers’ rights and safer working conditions.

As labour unions and activists worked tirelessly to improve the working conditions and treatment of workers at the height of the Industrial Revolution, Labour Day was created as a way to celebrate the members of trade and labour unions.

Today, it also marks the unofficial end of summer. Labour Day is celebrated on the first Monday in September in Canada and the United States.
