Labor Day, the 'unofficial last day of summer", was first celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City, in accordance with the plans of the Central Labor Union. American labor unions raised the nation’s standard of living, having fought for a standard 40-hour work week, unemployment benefits, Workers Compensation Laws, Employer-Based Health Coverage, the Family and Medical Leave Act, and more. It is appropriate, therefore, that the nation pays tribute on Labor Day to the creator of so much of the nation's strength, freedom, and leadership – the American worker.
