The reason why we have Labour Day in New Zealand as a holiday is because in the olden days, they use to work 60 hours a week and they had no time to have a break and spend with their family.
Samuel Parnell started this holiday on the 28 October 1890.
Today people only work a 40 hour week and get to spend time with family and friends.
