People should be with family and friends on labor day, away from work. They want resturants open and shopping malls, etc., but they never want to work themselves. It's not so much of a company obligation but it seems that people work because they feel obligated by society to be there at work.

Some industires, to remain provitable, are very wise to remain open on Labor Day (which in essence is good for our economy). For example, since a lot of people are off on this day a lot of shopping malls, grocery stores, and other retail stores can have big Labor Day Sales and bring in additional money to support their current expenses and give them a surplus which will allow them to stay in business during times that are slow. . .So there is a reason for some people having to work during Labor Day. But at least there is a day set aside to recognize that labor is essential to our growth and development as a society.

The holiday was originally to Honor the American worker .
Business`s Closed for the day to Honor their workers .
Today business`s stay open out of greed and lack of respect for the worker.
The people working have to work because of Piss poor wages ,no benefits and growing family obligations .
You don`t think the Vip`s and Ceo`s really give a crap ,do you ?

I would think that docors have to work on Labor Day. Hospitals must always be open, 24/7.

Of course people should work on Labor Day - that's why it's called Labor Day. Otherwise, it would be called Holiday Day.
