International Labour Day is celebrated every year on May 1 to honour the achievements of labourers and workers. Its origins lie in the eight-hour day movement in the United States. May Day is also observed in India as ‘Kamgar Divas’, ‘Kamgar Din’, and ‘Antrarashtriya Shramik Divas’. People celebrate the day by conducting marches and protests to ensure workers' rights and raise awareness about their exploitation. Labour Day is a public holiday in several countries.
