Do employees have a moral right to meaningful work?

There is an inseparable connection between meaningful work and individual freedom. In a free society, no worker is forced to stay in a job when he is free to accept another that he finds more appealing. Both the right to quit and the right to dismiss are based on voluntarism. In a free society, all employment contracts embody the perceived mutual advantage of both the employer and the employee who freely agree to have an economic relationship with one another. Although the bargaining power of the parties may vary over time and location, neither the employer nor the worker has an inherent advantage over the other. In fact, they are equal and autonomous with respect to the most critical and core aspect of work – the freedom to accept or reject an employment contract. It is only the state's legal intervention that can artificially and arbitrarily favor either the employer or the employee. A truly voluntary relationship fosters peaceful cooperation between the worker and the company, and can turn a job into a source of one's happiness. When a person works to attain his personal goals through his freely chosen job he will gain a sense of personal worth. He will also gain self-respect by not being dependent on other people for his sustenance.

Please give your vies regarding this.
