Rights and Duties

Rights and Duties of the worker


When starting a new job, it is always important to ask about the terms and conditions of employment. These normally vary from one company to another, however there are some basic conditions that apply universally. This page seeks to outline the basic rights and duties, however it is recommended that one checks the conditions with his company and the local labor office before accepting a new job.


Worker Rights


Every worker has a right to:
  • Work in a safe environment that does not threaten his health.
  • Know about any potential hazards at the workplace.
  • Take sick/medical leave when it is required and produce certification for it.
  • Take the number of leave days (after consultations with the employer) as set by the state.
  • Get paid at least the minimum wage as set by each state.
  • Be treated with the respect and dignity of a human being.
  • Be free to join any Union of his choice.



    Worker Duties
