Equal opportunity laws prohibit discrimination based on attributes like age, gender, disability, or religion and require employers to meet diversity quotas. Employment equality regulations ban age discrimination in hiring and prohibit changing views of applicants due to age. Employers are required to carry employment liability insurance to cover injuries or illness to employees caused by work or the workplace. Trade unions organize workers in various trades to collectively advocate for better pay and working conditions through strikes if needed. Employee rights guarantee fair workplace contracts, wages, breaks, leave, and working conditions for all.
