Its amazing that a company in the US can simply demand that if you use their services you have to agree not to sue them. Its one of the only reasons anyone could or would sue them!

Don't forget the use of mandatory employment arbitration which effectively reduces workers rights by not allowing them a right to legal action.

Just tacking on to your comment for any US workers:

Just because you can't sue for your rights doesn't mean nobody can. The government is often perfectly happy to sue on your behalf to recover lost wages or to punish workplace health and safety violations.
