A Two-Tier System is a primary critique of the Legalization model of sex work. In jurisdictions where the government issues licenses to a specific Brothel or regulates designated red-light zones, a divide is created. The first tier consists of registered, legal workers who pay taxes and have rights. The second tier consists of those who cannot register (due to immigration status, poverty, or a desire for Discretion), effectively pushing them into criminalized Street-Based Sex Work where they face harsher policing than ever before.
