The origins of International Labour Day can be traced back to the late 19th century, when workers in the United States and the Canada organised protests and strikes to demand better working conditions, including an eight hour work day .In 1886 ,a bomb exploded at a labor rally in Chicago's Hay Market square, leading to a violent clash between police and Protesters.The event became known as the Haymarket Affair and is often considered a turning point in the labour movement.
Today , International Labour Day is celebrated in many countries with Parades,rallies and other events that highlight the contribution and struggle of workers around the world.It is time to recognise the importance of fair labour practices and to advocate the workers rights and social justice.
