ABSTRACT

The conclusion will show how workers can have an increased voice by using tools outside of the typical legal ones. Without state protection the rights can be viewed as less stringent but working outside the system allows for greater malleability and flexibility to be able to cater to individual workers in individual workplaces. Workers’ rights is about better working conditions, hourly wages, and benefits, but it is also about being treated in a more civilized manner where one’s humanity is recognized. Only through all of these parts working together will a true version of workers’ rights emerge—one where workers are not viewed as mere tools but within and of the system itself.
