Your rights in the workplace

Working life

The most important thing in any job, whatever the company, is that you are healthy and happy in the workplace. No matter how hard you work, you can’t work well if you are not content in the place you are at work and the work you are doing. Your rights in the workplace are enshrined in law. They cover elements such as human rights, sexual and ethnic diversity, disabilities and more. A growing number of companies are working hard to make their workplaces as welcoming and open-minded as possible, which is great news for graduates. So, let’s take a look at some of your rights in the workplace.
