| Résumé : | On 1st December 2024, the Law of 3 May 2024 portant des dispositions en matière du travail du sexe sous contrat de travail [laying down provisions on sex work under an employment contract] entered into force in Belgium.1 This piece of legislation establishes a strict legal framework for an employer to lawfully employ sex workers, without this being condemned under the criminal offence of procuring, as well as creating an employee status tailored to sex workers. This Act is another building block in the broader process undertaken over the last few years to resolve the legal inconsistency surrounding sex work under employment contracts. This Dispatch aims to describe this reform process by outlining its legal, social, and criminal implications for both workers and employers. |
