Workers Rights

Workers’ rights refer to the legal, social, and economic entitlements and protections afforded to individuals in their capacity as employees or laborers. These rights encompass a range of aspects, including the right to fair wages, safe working conditions, reasonable working hours, freedom from discrimination, the right to organize and join trade unions, and protection against exploitation. The principles of workers’ rights aim to ensure that employees are treated with dignity and respect, and have access to a voice in their workplaces. These rights are often enshrined in labor laws and international conventions, such as those set forth by the International Labour Organization (ILO). Advocating for workers’ rights is crucial for promoting social justice and equitable treatment in the labor market.
