Today, May 1st, Panama joins the global community in celebrating Día del Trabajador, or Labor Day. While the roots of this important holiday lie in the international labor movement of the late 19th century, commemorating the fight for fair working conditions, Panama has embraced it as a day to honor the vital contributions of its workforce to the nation's progress.
The Origins
As you might know, May 1st was chosen internationally to remember the Haymarket Affair in Chicago in 1886, a pivotal moment in the struggle for the eight-hour workday. This movement resonated worldwide, and Panama, with its own history of dedicated workers shaping the country, adopted this day to recognize their efforts.

In Panama, Día del Trabajador is a national holiday, a day for rest, reflection, and often, family gatherings. You'll find many businesses closed as people take time to appreciate the fruits of their labor. It's a day filled with a sense of national pride and recognition for the backbone of the country – its workers.
