Forced Labour

Forced labour is a situation where individuals are made to work against their will, often under threats, coercion, or exploitation. They may be held in servitude, unable to leave their job, or subjected to poor working conditions and abuse. This practice deprives people of their freedom and is illegal because it violates fundamental human rights. Forced labour is often found in industries like agriculture, construction, and manufacturing, and can involve victims from vulnerable populations, including migrants or impoverished communities. Combating it requires strict enforcement of laws, awareness, and support for affected individuals.
