Today is the holiday Americans celebrate as Labor Day.  And while many of us reflect on the ceremonial “End of Summer” others in the Death Care profession are busy tending to the needs of the bereaved.

It’s a day when Funeral Director Daily does not want to bore you with some long story but it is also a day to pay homage to the American worker.  As you are well aware of there are all kinds of American workers that make this country move forward.  As you read this article some are on duty as funeral directors, some are on duty as truck drivers, some are on duty on the American farm helping to put food in our grocery stores and on our tables, and some are on duty protecting our country from those that would want to do us harm.

Whatever your occupation. . . Thank you for making the sacrifice to make this country work and move forward.  And, if you are an employee or one who manages employees we have a couple of employment related articles articles that we think might make for good reading on this day.  Here they are:

From our friends at CLA:  “The new overtime tax deduction:  What employers need to know”. 

From Michael Page:  “What to do if you don’t get the salary increment you want”.

• According to the National Constitution Center, Labor Day is not only the ceremonial end of Summer but it is the unofficial end of Hot Dog season. The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council says that between Memorial Day and Labor Day, Americans will eat 7 billion hot dogs.

• In 1950, according to the United States Department of Labor, 65.4% of men worked full-time and 36.8% of women worked full-time.  In 2022 those percentages had increased to 75.8% of men and 65.7% of women.

Enjoy the Day!!!
