What is Labor Day?
Labor Day is always observed on the first Monday in September. Adopted as a federal holiday in 1894 by President Glover Cleveland, it is a day set aside to pay tribute to the achievements and contributions of American workers. Labor Day weekend also hints at the end of summer and is often celebrated with street parties and local events — and a day off work.
