A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

The Belgian parliament went a step further at the start of this month when it passed a labour law that has been described as the first of its kind.

But that's not true at all. We decriminalised sex work in 2022 here in Victoria, Australia, and as part of that extended all protections and benefits workers enjoy to sex workers as well.

Edit: This includes things like superannuation (our pensions system) and maternity leave.

Yeah the person that described it as such probably wasn't thinking much farther than Europe

To be honest, not many Europeans do

Superannuation is such a cooler name than pension
