Ist of May adopted as the May Day represents the universal resolve to protect the interests of workers across the globe. It also is the synonym for the distress call - SOS .Post industrial revolution the workers needed to be protected and May Day remained relevant At the peak of powerful unionism the industrialists wished they had appropriated the slogan first. . Now post global liberalism ,workers are in greater need for the slogan ,but sadly have lost both in strength and voice. Powerful unions in the US are history and in India the union movement is moribund . Automation and high end Technology got rid of workers and innovative IT got rid of both traditional business AND workers ! Whatsapp had 55 employees when it was sold for $19 blln- close to the Market value of Hindustan Unilever !! .Every nation that adds millions of job seeking young men each year needs to join hands in a global push to reinvent the May Day all over again. Else its significance will be rendered historical and without work, even the term " workers " consigned to the erstwhile dictionary or to the browser ,if you will.
