Labour Day, celebrated annually on May 1, recognizes the contributions and struggles of the working class for fair wages and improved working conditions. In 2024, the International Labour Organisation (ILO) underscored the pressing need for renewed commitment to social justice, highlighting the daily challenges workers face, which have been exacerbated by climate change and rapid technological advancements. The ILO's statement emphasized that the current complexities require a collective effort and solidarity among workers to ensure that economic growth translates into better living standards and working conditions for all. This year's observance of Labour Day carries a heightened sense of urgency, calling for action to address these critical issues affecting workers globally.
