BjörnIn Germany we say "Arbeitnehmerrechte" and I think that's beautiful
AmbiorickxIsn’t “Arbeitsnehmer” one who takes labor? I would think the worker gives his or her labor, and the industrialist takes it.
Arbeitnehmer is employee, Arbeitgeber is employer.

It’s just combined words which would be in english single words. Nothing magical.
English is an inferior language because it does not combine words into one when it would make sense to do so to avoid confusion.

I’ve been trying to think of an example, the only one I could think of is “assault rifle”. In Swedish, where we contract words, it would be “assaultrifle”, so it’s clear you’re not encouraging someone to beat up a rifle.
