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.

In the 1880s, the idea for a September holiday known as Labor or Labor Day in the United States and Canada was initially floated. While working as the Central Labor Conference's secretary in 1882, machinist Matthew Maguire initially suggested a Labor Day holiday on the first Monday of September.
