Supporting International Workers’ Day

Worldwide Labor Day, celebrated annually on May 1, honors the working class and labor movement.
International Labor Day 2025!
Known as Worldwide Labo(u)r Day, International Workers’ Day, or simply May Day, commemorates the work of the Labor Movement across the globe, and celebrates the continued efforts of laborers to the honorable goal of workers’ rights.
On April 5, 2025, the Palestinian General Federation of Trade Unions called for members of the American labor unions to translate their solidarity into effective actions, as workers in Gaza live under constant attacks and economic collapse.
Anera recognizes the interconnectedness of the fight for workers’ rights with the fight for human rights around the globe, including the right to dignity for Palestinians, Jordanians, and Lebanese citizens. We encourage the solidarity of laborers and necessary resistance.
