Jamaicans are being encouraged to create backyard gardens and plant trees at home this year, as part of activities to mark the observance of National Labour Day.
This, as there will be no National Project this year, in keeping with COVID-19 restrictions.
As May 23 falls on a Sunday this year, Labour Day will be observed on the following day, Monday, May 24.
Activities to be observed for Workers’ Week will be carried out from Sunday, May 16 to Monday, May 24.
The theme for Workers’ Week and National Labour Day 2021 is “promoting a clean and healthy environment”.
