My take is this.
I will guarantee universal basic job & income for everyone.
Once that's guarantee I'll see if anyone is willingly becoming a sex worker.
Without performing that "experiment" I cannot really respond.
Let's take the opposite approach: look at all the top echelons of all past societies, assume that this subset of people was the most free to live in any way that they so desired, then count how many of these people did sex work. I think that we can safely assume that the amount of people that willingly engage in sex work is zero.
