Rights of sex workers

Rights of sex workers refer to the legal and human rights that individuals engaged in sex work should uphold and protect. These rights include the right to safety, health, and non-discrimination, as well as the right to freely choose their work and to be treated with dignity. Advocates argue for decriminalization of sex work, ensuring access to healthcare, protection from violence, and legal recognition. Protecting these rights aims to reduce stigma and promote the well-being and autonomy of sex workers, acknowledging their agency while addressing vulnerabilities they may face in society.
