What Worker Exploitation? Tackling Hidden Worker Exploitation What Worker Exploitation? Human Trafficking - the movement or recruitment of persons by means of threat, force or coercion for the purpose exploitation Forced Labour – where a person is made to work against their will under the fear of a penalty Rogue landlords – who house people in overcrowded and unsafe property often with threats of eviction or other intimidation Work-Finding Fees – In the UK it is unlawful for workers to be required to pay to get a job.

Indicators of Forced Labour Tackling Hidden Worker Exploitation Indicators of Forced Labour Threats of or actual physical or sexual violence; Restriction of movement and confinement to the workplace or to a limited area; Debt Bondage - where a worker works to pay off debt or loan, and is not paid for his or her services; Withholding of wages - refusing to pay the worker at all or excessive wage reductions; Retention of passports and identity documents; Threat of reporting to the authorities.

Tackling Hidden Worker Exploitation Who is at risk and how?... Mainly migrant workers – often with limited English language May lack knowledge of rights or how to enforce them and accept situation as better than nothing Kept in control by exploiting individuals or gangs Controlled by actual or threats of violence / financial debt / withholding passports, ID, bank accounts

It’s all about the “MONEY” Tackling Hidden Worker Exploitation It’s all about the “MONEY” Usually a crime coordinated by organised gangs, moving and exploiting numbers of people, often as part of wider criminal enterprises. It’s a hidden crime and difficult to uncover - workers may not consider themselves as victims or want to report it …but working together we can reduce this hidden exploitation
