The Garden Co-operative stands in solidarity with all workers impacted by occupational violence. S*x workers deserve to be safe, supported and free from violence — everywhere they work.

#fyp #occupationalsafety #solidarity #workerrights #thegardencooperative #oursky
Statement reads “The Garden Co-operative offers our love, support and solidarity to all workers impacted by the recent reports of occupational violence and in particular, the workers who have experienced violence themselves. All workers deserve to go to work safely and to be free of violence. S*x work is work and decriminalisation in Victoria means workers have the same occupational health and safety rights to a safe workplace as any other workers — regardless of whether their workplace is a home, hotel, establishment, car or street. The Garden Co-operative was born from the lived experiences of workers who faced unsafe, discriminatory and unfair work practices and we work each day towards a future that creates safer working environments for workers across our industry. Violence at work is never acceptable. S*x workers deserve to be safe, supported and respected at work. Our safety must be taken seriously and should not be sensationalised by media outlets.”

385 American workers die every day due to dangerous working conditions, according to the @aflcio.org.
