Rationale

It is imperative that the rights of the worker are defended. Whether an individual is a gig worker unprotected by current legislation, a person overworked by excessive hours, or a dissatisfied group of employees wanting to take action, we must ensure that every Avalonian worker is protected by law.

2

Maximum Working Hours

3

Right to Strike
