According to the Central Labor Union's plans, the first Labor Day holiday was observed on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City. The eight-hour working day movement, which had its start in the newly established Wellington colony in 1840, is mostly credited with inspiring Samuel Parnell, a carpenter, to refuse to work longer than eight hours a day.
