What you didn’t know about Labor Day

Cosmo Insurance Agency wants to wish everyone a Happy Labor Day today. A great day to spend time with your loved ones. We celebrate this holiday every year, but do we know the meaning of it? Well, in this morning’s article you’ll find out.

Labor Day is celebrated the first Monday in September. It was the creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

The first Labor Day holiday was celebrated on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City, in accordance with the plans of the Central Labor Union. The Central Labor Union held its second Labor Day holiday just a year later, on September 5, 1883.

In 1884 the first Monday in September was selected as the holiday, as originally proposed, and the Central Labor Union urged similar organizations in other cities to follow the example of New York and celebrate a “workingmen’s holiday” on that date. The idea spread with the growth of labor organizations, and in 1885 Labor Day was celebrated in many industrial centers of the country.

Whether you are an employer or an employee, Cosmo Insurance hopes you enjoy this holiday. Make your employees day even better and find out how you can get group health, life, dental, and vision from Cosmo Insurance Agency. Contact Cosmo today to get all the answers to your questions.
