PITTSBURGH & CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--For most, Labor Day is about shopping sales and last minute vacations before school starts. But Maxwell House knows the true meaning of the day is to honor hard working Americans. In fact, one in every four Americans will be working this Labor Day.* So to defend the glory of hard work and honor those working this holiday, Maxwell House is offering all Americans working on Labor Day the chance to win a paid day off.**
Maxwell House appreciates those working this Labor Day and is calling on all workers to tweet @Maxwell_House using #LaborOnLaborDay and #contest and share a photo of yourself or someone you know working on Labor Day. Those that follow the brand and tweet using the hashtag will be entered to win a paid day off.
“We believe in honoring the hard workers of America every day, but especially on Labor Day,” says Luke Cole, Director of Marketing at Kraft Heinz. “Maxwell House Coffee values hard work and has fueled America’s workforce with dependable, great tasting coffee for over 125 years.”
The #LaborOnLaborDay program honors hardworking Americans like Ron Kline, a semi-truck driver from Loudonville, Ohio. Ron has been referred to as America’s hardest working man and has worked for over 53 years without taking a day off. To show its appreciation, the Maxwell House brand is giving Ron his first family vacation this Labor Day. See more about Ron Kline’s story here: https://youtu.be/H_BfTBX6DBw
