On Labour Day, Bermudians came together under the theme, “Labour is The Link,”to reflect on how labour ties all of us together and underpins the successful running of our country and our economy. We also reflected on the sacrifices of those who fought for fair treatment, safe workplaces, and dignity on the job. We were reminded that the struggle for fairness continues, and that the PLP must never shy or steer away from that struggle.
From our Party’s founding, we have stood with workers and have had a clear vision: to ensure that the average Bermudian has dignity at work and opportunity for the future.
In government, we moved closer to fulfilling that vision by:
A worker on the minimum wage will see their take home pay go up.
A new father can spend time with his newborn without losing income.
A mother can bond with her baby with confidence her job is safe.
A construction worker putting in long hours is guaranteed the overtime they deserve..
This is Labour in progress with laws and policies that respect Bermuda’s workers We don’t just talk about fairness.. We are making laws to guarantee it, with more in the way!
Labour is the link that brings it all together.
Business cannot thrive without thriving Bermudian labour.
Our society cannot thrive if our workers are left behind.
As we look back on Labour Day 2025, we celebrate how far we’ve come. But we also recommit to the work ahead building a fairer Bermuda for all of us.
