Labour Day

Labour Day · World Questions

1 May is International Workers' Day, but no two of these seven places treat it the same way: Taiwan only made it a universal day off under a new act in 2025, mainland China gives two days since its 2024 amendment, Brazil and Indonesia list it as a national holiday, India's national list does not contain it at all, Japan works on 1 May while the days around it are holidays, and the United States puts its Labor Day in September.

Guess: which country puts labour day on the **first Monday of September** instead of 1 May?

On labour day, do you work?

Guess: after a 2024 amendment, which place writes 1 and 2 May into its statutory Labour Day break?
