How will you celebrate Labor Day?
The first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1881, in New York City. The Central Labor Union planned it, and they held a second Labor Day holiday one year later, on September 5, 1883.
In 1884, the first Monday in September was selected as the holiday. Central Labor Union urged other organization in other cities to follow their New York example and celebrate a "workingman's holiday."
The first proposal of the Labor Day holiday suggested a street parade to exhibit to the public "the strength and esprit de corps of the trade and labor organizations" of the community - followed by a festival for workers and their families. Labor Day was celebrated in many industrial centers of the country in 1885.
The Sunday preceding Labor Day was adopted as Labor Sunday and dedicated to the spiritual and educational aspects of the labor movement.

It's appropriate that the United States pay tribute to the American worker. The labor force added materially to the highest standard of living the world has ever known.
March 2013, the Department of Labor celebrated 100 years of service. They launched a year's worth of educational events outlining the Department's history.
