Labor Day in the United States is celebrated as a public holiday on the first Monday of September. Labor Day pays tribute to all the different kinds of immense contributions and multiple achievements of all American workers all over the country. In the 19th century, most Americans used to toil hard 12 hours a day and 7 days a week and most of the times these were in very much physically demanding conditions and all these jobs were very much low paying. It was because of this that all American workers came together and held a parade which was later known as the Labor Day parade from New York’s City Hall to a massive picnic park a little bit uptown. This happened on September the 5th,1882.
