Labor Day is celebrated on the first Monday of September in the United States and Canada. For example, in 2025, Labor Day will be observed on Monday, September 1st. This day honors the American labor movement and the contributions of workers to the country's development and achievements.
In contrast, many other countries around the world celebrate Labor Day (also known as International Workers' Day or May Day) on May 1st, commemorating the labor movement and events like the Haymarket affair in Chicago in 1886.
