A Simplified Guide to Knowing Your Rights

The Women’s Legal Center has created a simple, straightforward guide designed to help sex workers understand their rights. There are many ways in which sex workers’ human rights are violated. Woman Know Your Rights: A Simplified Guide to Sex Work and Your Rights explains in clear detail the constitutional and legal rights sex workers have, how to recognize abuse, where to get help, and how to use the law to assert one’s rights. The guide reviews South Africa’s current laws related to sex work, carefully explaining legal terms that may be unfamiliar or difficult to understand, and cites successful examples of sex workers protecting their rights and reporting police abuse. This easy-to-read booklet can be used as an educational tool, to help sex workers protect themselves, or to help raise community awareness about this important issue.
