1. Guatemala
Guatemala tops our list of 11 countries with the worst labor laws, working conditions in the world. Guatemala is among countries which have no legal provisions concerning workers’ rights. As ITUC notes, the key problems in Guatemala are armed attacks, murders and the lack of due process. 2016 reports refer to the organizations such as the International Labor Organization and the United Nations which have recorded that there are extremely serious and systematic violations of workers’ rights in Guatemala. Apart from the fact that workers enjoy no protection by the government whatsoever, serious cases of violence against them are not dealt with accordingly by the judicial system.
