This new month doubles as Workers day Celebration. Growing up we always observed the 1st day of May as holiday. However as students then, we never really knew what it depicted.
Workers day originated in the late 19th century as the trade union and labour movements grew. The 1st day of May was chosen to be International Workers’ day to commemorate the 1886 Haymarket affair in Chicago.

Workers day is associated with the start of Spring as well as the celebration of workers. It is a day set aside to celebrate the achievement of workers.
It was promoted by the International Labour movement: Eight hours day movement; eight hours of work, eight hours recreation and eight hours rest.
This day is widely celebrated by most countries, some refer to it as Labour day, May day or Workers day to promote the working class. But today we have disregarded the Eight hour day movement.
In present day, workers scarcely have time for eight hours recreation and rest. This leading to serious heath issues.
I suggest we go back to our roots and pick up the Eight Hour Day Movement promoted by the Labour Union.
Happy new month
