The Nazis identified two types of camps:work camps - people were inadequately fed and overworked, they were worked to deathdeath camps - people were warehoused then executed in massSecond answer with additional information. These camps were called "Concentration Camps". The term had first been used to explain what the Spanish did in Cuba in the late 1890's. In Cuba, these were not death or slave labor camps; therefore the name at the time in Germany did not necessarily arouse suspicions that the Nazi's had in fact created camps to carry-out mass genocide. Often these major camps had sub-camps built nearby to assist with the various tasks assigned to the camps. For example a major death camp could have several sub-camps established to specialize in slave labor, located near the location of the work being one. For example: The famous Auschwitz/Birkenau Extermination Camp at Oswiecim-Brzezinka had 51 sub-camps.
They were separated and if it was an extermination camp, those considered unfit for use as slave labor were put to death.
By 1944 Nazi had 13 main concentration camps and over 500 satellite camps. The concentration camps were not just to murder people but also for free slave labor.
The Holocaust had Concentration Camps or Forced labor camps to destroy the Jews. They would force them to go to these camps and give them little food and force them to work until they died, or they just killed them out right. ___ In the then Soviet Union the Nazis often simply shot Jews in open country, but in Western and Central Europe they weren't keen on this. ___ There were different kinds of camps for different purposes. The key distinction is between ordinary concentration camps, which were use for slave labour and extermination camps, which existed only to kill.
The right was slave labor, and the left was the gas chambers.
Some camps, such as Treblinka and Sobibor, existed almost solely for the purpose of exterminating people. Some, however, were also slave labor camps (for example, Auschwitz). On arrival, SS doctors (!) divided the arrivals into "fit" and "unfit" for work. The criteria were NOT absolute but varied with the needs of the SS slave labor industries at the camps. In general, the old, the infirm and children were classified as "unfit" for work and gassed. Joncey
On arrival at camps like Auschwitz they were divided into those fit for work (as slave labourers) and those who were 'unfit' for work. The second group was gassed as soon as was practical.
German concentration camps were mostly extermination or death camps designed to murder the inmates, primarily Jews. Some camps also sent out inmates to be used as slave labor. Slave labor was often outside the camp at a factory, railyard, rock quarry, underground mine, etc. Also all camps used the inmates to perform some sort of work at the camps themselves. All the German camps were operated in total violation of international law and well outside all standard norms of behavior.___One needs to distinguish between the extermination camps and the other concentration camps. (The Auschwitz group of camps and Majdanek were dual purpose camps that combined both functions).Slave labour usually involved working for up to 11 hours a day, six days a week, on inadequate food, under the supervision of the SS, with savage punishments for even minor breaches of camp discipline.The work that slave labourers had to do included: quarrying, agricultural labour and working in the chemicals and armaments industries.
