Want to learn about the history of Labor Day? We celebrate it every year, but how much do we know about this federal holiday...? Labor Day is observed annually on the first Monday of September. Originally it was a day organized to celebrate various labor associations' strengths and their contributions to the American workforce. Presently it is a day that gives workers a day of rest and celebrates their contributions to the U.S. economy. Come learn about the history of Labor Day with Malcolm Crawford, a Training Coordinator on LAHSA's Training Team.
