Belgium Approves Historic Labour Law for Sex Workers, Granting Unprecedented Rights

In a groundbreaking move, Belgium has become the first nation in the world to pass a labor law specifically designed for sex workers. This legislation grants these individuals access to fundamental rights and protections that have long been denied to them. The law provides sex workers with health insurance, pension and unemployment benefits, paid holidays, maternity leave, and the right to refuse clients or sexual acts without fear of retaliation. Additionally, it safeguards their anonymity to prevent discrimination in other employment settings.
