Home care workers, seniors, and people with disabilities held a rally at the Fordham Bus Plaza in the Bronx on March 12, 2021 in support of the “Fair Pay for Home Care Act,” (S5374) thanking the State Senators who have already supported the bill and urging legislative leadership to include the measure in the state budget. The Fair Pay for Home Care Act, sponsored by Senator Rachel May and Assemblymember Richard Gottfried, would raise home care wages to 150% of the minimum wage⎯ allowing home care workers to make at least $35,000 a year on average.

MOJO, ETHIOPIA - DECEMBER 12, 2011: Mr. Abebaw Gessese received a $128,000 loan from Dashen Bank thanks to USAID's Development Credit Authority's 50% credit guarantee. The loan enabled him to expand his poultry farm and employ more workers (half of which are women), add to the country's economy, increase exports, provide additional protein for clients, and clean water for the local community through his well.

May Day is May 1, and refers to any of several holidays celebrated on this day. May 1 was a traditional summer holiday in many pre-Christian European pagan cultures, and many elements of these holidays are still celebrated on May 1 today, such as the Maypole. While February 1 was the first day of Spring, May 1 was the first day of summer: hence, the summer solstice on June 25 (now the 22nd) was "midsummer."
In the Roman Catholic tradition, May is observed as Mary's month, and May Day is usually a celebration of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In this connection, Mary's head (in works of art, school skits, etc.) will often be adorned with flowers. Another May Day tradition (fading in popularity since the late 20th century) is the giving of May baskets, small baskets of candy and/or flowers, usually left anonymously on neighbors' doorsteps.
In the United States, May Day is officially observed as Loyalty Day.
May Day also refers to various socialist and labor movement celebrations conducted on May 1, unrelated to the traditional celebrations to commemorate the Haymarket martyrs of 1886 and the international socialist movement generally. The latter event is an important holiday in Communist and Socialist countries.
In recent years, London based group the Space Hijackers have held events on May Day. These include Mayday Anarchists vs Members of Parliament Cricket in 2005, and a Police Victory Party in 2006. In 2007 the group planned a "Suited and Booted" [1] party in the City of London, the financial centre of London.
In addition, May Day in the United States is commonly regarded — at least by certain groups — as a commemoration of the execution of the Haymarket martyrs who were arrested after the Haymarket Riot of 1886 in Chicago, Illinois, which occurred on May 4, but was the culmination of labor unrest which began on May 1. The date consequently became established as an anarchist and socialist holiday during the 20th century, and in these circles it is often known as International Workers' Day or Labour Day. In this form, May Day has become an international celebration of the social and economic achievements of the working class and labor movement.
The earliest May Day celebrations appeared in pre-Christian Europe, as in the Celtic celebration of Beltane, and the Walpurgis Night of the Germanic countries. Although the pagan-oriented celebrations faded as Europe became Christianised, a more secular version of the holiday continued to be observed in the schools and churches of Europe well into the 20th century. In this form, May Day may be best known for its tradition of dancing the Maypole and crowning of the Queen of the May. Today many Neopagans, especially Wiccans, celebrate reconstructed versions of the old pagan holidays on May 1.

Walmart employees picket outside of the Walmart store on Crenshaw Blvd in Los Angeles California on Black Friday November 29, 2013. The employees accuse Walmart of continued unlawful retaliation against workers who speak out for change at the company. Some of the striking workers say that when they have come forward to call on Walmart to address issues with scheduling, wages, benefits and above all else, respect in the work place, Walmart has reacted by retaliating against them.
