LeftLynk @leftlynk.bsky.social · 07/09/20264. The right to organize. Every right we have came from people banding together, which employers could fire you for. After the strike waves of the early 1930s, the 1935 Wagner Act cemented your right to form a union and made firing you for it illegal.nlrb.gov1935 passage of the Wagner Act | National Labor Relations Board 040
LeftLynk @leftlynk.bsky.social · 07/09/20263. Overtime, a wage floor, no more child labor. Before 1938 there was no wage minimum, no overtime, and kids worked 10 to 16 hour days in mills and mines. Years of strikes through the Depression forced the Fair Labor Standards Act, which set all three at once.guides.loc.govResearch Guides: This Month in Business History: Fair Labor Standards Act SignedCompiled by specialists in Business Reference Services at the Library of Congress, this guide highlights stories about the people, places, and events that made their mark on business history. 140
LeftLynk @leftlynk.bsky.social · 07/09/20262. The 8-hour day "Eight hours for work, eight hours for rest, eight hours for what you will." On May 1, 1886, over 100,000 workers walked off the job for it. Decades of that pressure is why the 40-hour week became federal law in the 1930s.guides.loc.govResearch Guides: This Month in Business History: Haymarket Square RiotCompiled by specialists in Business Reference Services at the Library of Congress, this guide highlights stories about the people, places, and events that made their mark on business history. 130
LeftLynk @leftlynk.bsky.social · 07/09/20261. The weekend In the 1880s most workers were doing 10+ hour days, six days a week. Unions led by the Knights of Labor pushed back, and when the first Labor Day moved to a Monday in 1884, it gave most workers their first two-day weekend.theconversation.comLabor Day and May Day emerged from the movement for a shorter workday in industrial AmericaBoth holidays arose at the same time, nearly 150 years ago, in the midst of an explosive labor uprising. 130
