Labour Day came into being following the struggles of workers demanding their rights in the 19th century. It began with International Workers' Day union movement in the United States when the industrialists began exploiting the labour class by making them work for long hours. The workers who felt that their basic rights were not being fulfilled rose in a union for better working conditions including paid leaves, proper wages and other benefits.
