International Workers Day celebrated across the globe

People across the globe will be celebrating International Workers Day well known as Labour Day or May Day on 1^st May. The day is dedicated to our working class and labourers. It is a public holiday in South known as "Workers Day".

We got a few community members to share their message:

XOLANI FIHLA – JMPD Spokesperson said:
“As we celebrate and commemorate Workers Day, let us be reminded of all those who work hard each day without making any compromises. We want to thank all the hardworking people who on a daily basis contribute to make ourcity a better place to live in. May their hard work bring all the good they deserve and take them forward in life.”

Kasi Hero Foundation Co-founder NDIVHUWO LIPHADZI said:“We see lot of young people are suffering. Some they lost their jobs; now fuel and food is up and everyone is complaining about it.Change mostly affects people who stay in the informal settlement. They were not able to afford even their basic needs, now it’s going to be worse”.

LOUISA MOLISE from Youngage Foundation said: To all theworkers: “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work, and the only way to do great work is to love what you do. Happy workers day, to each person working. Your passion, hard work, commitment, energy is all appreciated.”

ALLEY SOL of Sisterhood Foundation said: Happy Workers Day, to all who work hard each day without compromising life! Remember, work is an extension of our personalities, and we are not all the same, this is one way a person can define themselves to measure worth, humility and achievement. Work can be seen as many things as possible and not just a normal 9-5. It can also be the work u put into the community you live in or the effort you display in a voluntary project. I would like to say, may your hard work always bring you the sweet fruits you deserve and take you ahead in life. Keep working hard to achieve everything you had ever dreamt of and may today remind you that nothing is impossible if you work hard for it!

BRIMO KEENAN said: Happy Workers Day to everyone1 Workers are the one out of the strongest support of any country economy, Love what you do, do what you love Let us come together on international Workers Day to thank them for their labour and for their dedication. Drugs is killing our communities because 60% is without Jobs but we are moving forward together as on Nation.

FAIEZA CANNELL said: May Day, Workers Day. We as workers deserve fair and equal rights eight-hour days. Struggle of workers. Solitary between workers.
