Sex workers will soon have the same rights in Victoria as other employees after the state government announced it would decriminalise sex work.

In a statement on Friday, the state government said a range of changes will be made in the next two years to increase sex worker safety, reduce stigma and improve access to government health and justice services.

Criminal offences to protect children and workers from coercion and address other forms of non-consensual sex work will continue to be enforced by state and federal law enforcement agencies.Victoria has now moved to follow other jurisdictions in making the move including New South Wales, which decriminalised sex work in 1995.

missjemmavip Great move, I hope Canada does the same!

Good.

Good, as if such people are not servicing a need same as Bunnings is.

Equal roots are necessary for all occupations! 😆😜

Good intentions often result in unintended consequences. I fear this may be one of those times.

Does this mean they'll be paid a living wage with time off and vacation time or does it just means more free kickback sex for overly roided out vicpol because I have my serious doubts bordering on suspicion of the entire vicpol work horse force

It was criminalised down there?

Licensed brothels been around for years though? Confused 🤔

I actually can’t believe this was still a thing. I didn’t know I was live in Victorian times

It is about time!!!!!!!!!

benny_surge does this mean i get breaks now

Great news for traffickers pimps and Johns.

Yay now I can't wait to tour there again! 🥰🥰

About time.

Whats the point? Brothels and massage parlors are closed due to Dan's lockdown. Sex workers are out of work

Good. Now I hope their health can be monitored correctly.

criprights It's an honest profession unlike ,like politics

Should they be mandating vaccination for this new cohort of workers? Or will this be the new normal of mystery cases?

Everyone deserves to be safe at work no matter what they do. Great decision 💋

AYYYYYY Revilino_ FOR U BUDDY

Stories to fall back on when tackling the use of false positive results from a failed Covid testing kit becomes too far outside the realms for soyboy reporters... SBS-Al Jazeera.. get it?

lol

About time 👍

Cannabis next? Hahaha sorry my bad

How is that going to go with lockdown? Essential service ?

They should make it illigal

What about weed? when is it's turn. Oregon has just decriminalised all drugs.

Good

Congrats to your mums! lol

Typo in the headline. There’s an extra “i” that shouldn’t be in decriminalised 😊

So will they get superannuation, holiday pay, sick pay, maternity leave and penalty rates?

Wait, what. (Looks at calendar) its 2021!. Work is work babes.

Wasn't it decrimnailsed already? How did the brothels operate all this time?

I honestly thought they already had. I'm sure they had. Did some moron recriminalise it while I was overseas? (Let me guess: Bloody Kennett).

Finally, I can get back to work ..

SBS about fucking time

TheEtelarid19O2

It’s about time

This is off the topic. In terms of renewable energy. Could these 3 bladed wind turbines be more efficient with a second set of blades offset to the front

This is a move in the right direction! Next we need to show solidarity with the pedophile community if we’re really going to wave our liberal flag.
