Labor Exploitation

Labor exploitation, also known as labor trafficking or forced labor, refers to the practice of using force, fraud, or coercion to exploit individuals for labor or commercial sex. Labor exploitation often occurs in industries such as agriculture, domestic work, and construction, where workers may be vulnerable to abuse due to their immigration status, lack of education, or other factors. Victims of labor exploitation may be forced to work long hours for little or no pay, and may be subject to physical, sexual, or psychological abuse. Governments and organizations around the world are working to combat labor exploitation and protect the rights of workers.
