Happy Labor Day From SERVPRO Framingham

We hope that you have a healthy and safe Labor Day weekend and are able to enjoy time off.

Labor Day occurs on Monday, September 6. This is a day to tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers.

It was created by the labor movement in the late 19th century. It later became a federal holiday in 1894. Labor Day is an annual celebration of workers and their achievements originated during one of American labor history’s most dismal chapters.

At the height of the Industrial Revolution in the United States on average Americans worked 12-hour days and seven-day weeks just to make a basic living. Even children as young as 5 or 6 were working in mills, factories, and mines across the country.

People of all ages faced extremely unsafe working conditions, sanitary facilities, and even breaks.

Now it is meant to symbolize the end of summer for many Americans. Typically this is celebrated with parties, street parades, and festivals. 

We hope that you have a healthy and safe Labor Day weekend and are able to enjoy time off.
