International Workers’ Day is celebrated on May 1, to commemorate the labor movement and the labor force worldwide, as a movement demanding different causes related to work.
About a hundred years ago, factories were workplaces in which men, women, the elderly and children worked equally, with shifts of more than 12 hours a day. This strenuous working day did not give people the option to recover, rest or enjoy leisure time.
This date pays tribute to all those who fought for years to establish an eight-hour workday and thereby improve the quality of life for all workers.
International Labor Organization (ILO)
The International Labor Organization (ILO) is a tripartite agency of the United Nations (UN), which brings together governments, employers and workers from 187 member states. It was created in 1919, with the aim of promoting labor rights, promoting job opportunities, formulating policies and developing programs that promote the work of men and women.
