Etymology
Laborator entered Romanian from French laboratoire, itself from Medieval Latin laboratorium, a place for laborare, to work. The Latin verb laborare derives from labor, meaning work or toil. The ultimate root of Latin labor is disputed among etymologists, so no single Indo-European ancestor is agreed upon.
