  • The first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City, planned by the Central Labor Union.


  • The original idea for Labor Day was proposed by Peter J. McGuire, a co-founder of the American Federation of Labor, who suggested a day to honor those "who from rude nature have delved and carved all the grandeur we behold."
