Celebrate Labour Day With Funky Socks

In today’s world, the 8-hour workday might be something we’re used to already. However, that wasn't always the case in the past. Over time, the need for workers to have a healthier lifestyle and to be empowered grew, as workers are vital for the growth of the country. Labour Day recognises and celebrates exactly that. And there is a fun way to honour this special day - by putting on a pair of funky socks. In this article, we are taking a look at some of the best socks to rock on Labour Day in Australia!


What is Labour Day in Australia?


Before we take a look at all the awesome socks you can wear on Labour Day, let's quickly talk about what Labour Day is in Australia and where it came from. This special day marks the accomplishments of labour and unions to enforce the eight-hour day around the nineteenth century. Why is this important? Well, previously workers were required to work 10 to 12 hours a day for six days a week. That's a huge change that is part of our society even now. And that's definitely a good cause for celebration!
