NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR A VALIANT HEART No. 0005/01-05/RDPF-KUMZSE/ADN/2025!
HAPPY LABOR DAY, 2025 EDITIONS!
DEAR COMPATRIOTS, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, HAPPY LABOR DAY, AND NOT JUST EMPLOYMENT DAY!
We must say that for a long time now, Labor Day has become much more recognized as a celebration of EMPLOYMENT! While work is a torture specific to every human being for their own development, employment is paid work! Labor Day and Employment Day must highlight work, which is what should be celebrated, and not just employment.
Thus, workers in the informal sector do not always experience the same attributes as those in the formal sector!
The liberal professions, farmers, ranchers, etc., do not feel that this Labor Day takes their professional status into account or involves them in any way!
How can we understand that Mr. or Mrs. X, Y, works every day in their small artisanal production, which allows them to feed their wife/ husband and their family, but would never receive any social recognition compared to someone who works in a factory, a plant, or even an office?
Yet, they all do a job, which on this day should also be celebrated and deserve a medal! Cleaners, informal security guards, etc.,they also don't feel that this day takes into account their profession, their work, and their trade. Carpenters, masons, electricians, plumbers, etc., who are self-employed, don't feel that Labor Day is also a time of recognition for their work!
We hope that in the future, consideration will be given to allowing all formal and informal workers to be equally taken into account by the State in the process of rewarding their work through decorations and medals!
The civil service cannot exist on its own without the private sector.
The Ministry of Employment, Labor, Public and Private Service - MELPP would better meet the requirements of a labor and employment holiday.
True social justice for all workers. May God bless you/us! May God bless Labor Day extended to all workers without distinction! Amen!!!
