Labor Rights Are Human Rights

"Labor rights are human rights" means that every worker deserves fair treatment, safe working conditions, fair pay, and the right to organize or speak up without fear of punishment. These rights are fundamental to human dignity and should be protected everywhere, just like freedom of speech or the right to education. When workers’ rights are respected, it promotes healthier, more equitable workplaces and communities. Recognizing labor rights as human rights emphasizes their importance for everyone’s well-being and underscores the need for society and governments to ensure fair treatment for all workers.
