The federal government of Pakistan has declared May Day, which falls on a Monday, as a public holiday to celebrate World Labor Day.
All state and semi-state offices and educational institutions will remain closed in the federal capital from May 1st (Monday).

World Labor Day, also known as International Labor Day, is observed annually on May 1st to celebrate the contribution of workers.
World Labor Day commemorates workers’ struggle for better working conditions, hours, and wages.
In addition, this day commemorates ongoing efforts to protect workers’ rights and promote fair labor practices around the world.
Many countries, including Pakistan, celebrate May Day as a public holiday to recognize the important role workers play in their country’s economy and to promote workers’ rights.
Labor rights organizations and unions often hold rallies and other events on this day to raise awareness of labor issues and advocate for better working conditions and wages.
