Sex Work Decriminalisation
Sex work decriminalisation means removing laws that criminalize the act of selling or buying sexual services, treating it like any other legal profession. This approach aims to reduce harm by allowing sex workers to operate legally, access health services, and report crimes without fear of arrest. Decriminalisation focuses on regulating the industry through health and safety standards rather than punishment, with the goal of improving rights, safety, and dignity for sex workers. It differs from legalization, where specific rules are set, as decriminalisation removes criminal penalties altogether.
