On 28 October 1890, the 50th anniversary of the eight-hour day was commemorated with a parade. In 1899 government legislated that the day will be a public holiday from 1900. The day was celebrated on different days in different towns. This led to ship owners complaining that seamen were taking too many holidays by having one Labour Day in one port then another in their next port.
