Labour Day 
Remains

EHT SDRAWKCAB YADILOH

 

            In case you aren’t sure of the title… it’s Labour Day The Backwards Holiday. Every year when it rolls around, I wonder why it’s named Labour Day and can’t help making the same point. Since it’s a Holiday intended to be just that, a Holiday- I would think a better name may be Relax Day or Lazy Day or Sleep in Day, maybe even Do-Nothing Day, something other than Labour Day. After all, we know what Labour means. And many will likely be celebrating Labour Day by Labouring.

Labour Day came about because workers felt they were spending too many hours and days on the job.

 

In the 1830s, manufacturing workers were putting in 70-hour weeks on average. Sixty years later in 1890, hours of work had dropped, although the average manufacturing worker still toiled in a factory 60 hours a week.

 

These long working hours caused many union organizers to focus on winning a shorter eight- hour workday. They also focussed on getting workers more days off, such as the Labour Day holiday and reducing the workweek to just six days.

These early organizers clearly won since the most recent data shows that the average person working in manufacturing is employed for a bit over 40 hours a week and most people only work five days a week.

 

Surprisingly, many politicians and business owners were actually in favour of giving workers more time off. That is because workers who have no free time were not able to spend their wages on travelling, entertainment or dining out.

 

As the Canadian economy expanded beyond farming and basic manufacturing in the late 1800s and early 1900s it became important for businesses to find consumers interested in buying the products and services being produced in ever greater amounts. Shortening the work week was one way of turning the working class into the consuming class.

 

So, to celebrate the month of September and the affection for Labouring, I have a special announcement to make: I will be Labouring, but for a very special reason.

 

My Partners and I are committed to helping you and those you know buy or sell the place called home. In fact, it’s a race to help as many as possible so we can GIVE more away.
