"May Day"

May Day is a historical day for the working people. First May is called May Day. May Day is the international workers day and also an international holiday. May Day commemorates us the historic struggle of workers of Chicago, USA. 

On March 03, 1886, police fired into a crowd of workers at the MacComic Harvest Machine Company, Chicago and left an undetermined number of workers injured. 

At that time, factory workers had to work at least 14 to 16 hours a day. In the 1880s, a movement was called for an 8 hours working day by which both the organized and unorganized workers were inspired. 

They started to take part in different meetings and processions spontaneously to meet their demand. May Day is a symbol of freedom for the workers all over the world. On this day workers all over the world vow to fight against all sorts of oppression. 

The movement of May Day inspires the workers to be united to realize their demands. Because of the success of the movement of 1886, now the working people get a minimum wage, job security, safety laws, and eight hours working day. 

This great day reminds the workers all over the world to stand up against oppression and injustice. And that is why working people are now enjoying better working conditions, better pay and better lives.

"May Day"

The International Labour Day, which is observed on 1st May annually in India, is a tribute to all the workers for their contributions toward building the nation’s economy. The Labour Kisan Party initiated International Labour’s day in Chennai, India. India celebrated its first labour’s day in May 1923. Approximately eighty countries, including India, celebrate the international labour’s day on 1st May, whereas the western continents observe labour’s day in September’s first Monday.

The labour class across the continents were maltreated and were compelled to work twelve to fifteen hours per day for seven days in a week.  Even children were forced to work in factories, mills, and mines.  They were not paid appropriately for their efforts.  They lived below the poverty line and could not afford basic necessities.  

In the late 1800s, they demanded recognition for their hard work and reduced working hours.  The history of celebrating labour’s day originated from the United States of America, during the peak of the Industrial Revolution, where the workers sang in unison for equality.  The labourers were subjected to hardship and cruelty.  As a result of the protest of the labour union movement, they were compensated with proper wages.  

After the victory of the labour union movement, their working hours were reduced from fifteen working hours to eight working hours with paid leave.

Labour’s day is marked as a remembrance of their victory.  It is celebrated with pomp and show with street parades, parties, and unique athletic events.  The workers are the backbone of every nation.  

A country cannot see economic progress and industrial growth without the contribution of workers.   Thus, on International labour’s day, we can pay our gratitude to all the workers.
