Labor Day in United States

What do people do?
Labor Day is a day of rest or the last chance for many people to go on
trips before the summer ends. For students, it is the last chance to
organize parties before school starts again. In some neighborhoods,
people organize fireworks displays, barbecues and public arts or
sports events. The football season starts on or around Labor Day and
many teams play their first game of the year during Labor Day weekend.

Traditionally, people did not wear white clothes, particularly shoes,
after Labor day. However, this custom is slowly dying out. More and
more people now wear white all year round, rather than just in the
summer. Similarly, it is the custom to wear a straw cowboy hat from
Memorial Day until Labor Day, then a felt one until Memorial Day comes
around again.

May 1 is Lei Day in Hawaii, where celebrations include lei-making
competitions, concerts, as well as giving and receiving leis to
friends and family.

Public life
Labor Day is a federal holiday. All Government offices, schools and
organizations and many businesses are closed. Some public
celebrations, such as fireworks displays, picnics and barbecues, are
organized, but they are usually low key events. For many teams, it is
the start of the football season. As it is the last chance for many
people to take summer trips, there may be some congestion on highways
and at airports. Public transit systems do not usually operate on
their regular timetables.
Background
The first Labor Day was held in 1882. Its origins stem from the desire
of the Central Labor Union to create a holiday for workers. It became
a federal holiday in 1894. It was originally intended that the day
would be filled with a street parade to allow the public to appreciate
the work of the trade and labor organizations. After the parade, a
festival was to be held to amuse local workers and their families. In
later years, prominent men and women held speeches. This is less
common now, but is sometimes seen in election years. One of the
reasons for choosing to celebrate this on the first Monday in
September was to add a holiday in the long gap between Independence
Day and Thanksgiving.
