Labor Day is a federal holiday in the United States that honors and celebrates the American labor movement and the works and contributions of laborers to the development and achievements of the country. The first Labor Day was celebrated on September 5, 1882, in New York City, organized by the Central Labor Union. It became a federal holiday in 1894, and since then, it has been observed on the first Monday of September each year.
On Labor Day, many businesses and organizations are closed, and workers are given a day off to relax and enjoy the unofficial end of summer. It is also a popular day for picnics, barbecues, parades, and other outdoor activities to celebrate the hard work and dedication of American workers.
