April Meeting report

MAY DAY

The next big event for the union movement is May Day.

May Day (1 May) stands as a cornerstone celebration in the international labour movement. It originated from the struggle for the eight-hour workday pioneered by Australian stonemasons in 1856.

What began as a single protest evolved into an annual global commemoration that transcends mere opposition to inequality; it embodies workers' collective vision for a fairer society.

The Australian labour movement developed its own distinctive traditions of May Day observance which continue today, honouring the ongoing fight for workers' rights and social justice.

The PSA will provide further details about our May Day participation soon.
