Spotting the signs of modern day slavery.

What is modern day slavery?

Modern day slavery is when a victim is unable to leave their situation of exploitation, controlled by threats, punishment, and violence. Often for the purpose of someone else's game, it often goes undetected as people might not think it's happening in their area and they might not know what to look out for.

Modern day slavery can take many forms. The most common ones are labor exploitation. Victims are forced to work without their consent for little or no pay, whilst often threatened by their abuser.

Sexual exploitation: Victims are exploited through non-consensual abuse for the gratification or financial gain of another person or group of people.

Criminal exploitation: Victims are forced to commit crimes such as shoplifting and drug dealing under the control of criminals.

Domestic servitude: Victims are forced to perform household tasks for their abusers for little or no pay at all.

Organ harvesting: living, or deceased victims are recruited by threat or force for their organs.

One of the methods of modern day slavery is human trafficking. Human trafficking is the recruitment or transportation of a person by a means of deception, threat force, or taken advantage of a person's vulnerable situation.
