Forced and bonded labor is often referred to as "modern slavery." It involves individuals being compelled to work against their will, typically through coercion, deception, or the exploitation of vulnerabilities. Bonded labor, specifically, occurs when a person is forced to work to repay a debt, often under terms that are impossible to fulfill. Both practices violate fundamental human rights and are prevalent in various industries worldwide.

What are the causes of bonded labor?
Poverty, discrimination, social exclusion and insufficient implementation of legislation are the root causes of bonded labour across the world. In South Asia, a caste system excludes particular groups from accessing education, health care and land, on the basis of their assigned status at birth leaves this group vulnerable to exploitation and families trapped in a cycle of poverty. Desperate poverty in India means that 81 per cent of those trapped in bonded labour took out a loan from a landlord as they did not have enough money to meet their basic needs, with over 70 percent of people bonded for an initial loan equivalent or less than $16 (USD). A manipulative form of bonded labour affects 33,000 people in the Peruvian Amazon who are forced to work in the logging industry. Timber companies use middlemen to approach indigenous communities and offer them advances in the form of money, basic goods or public services such as building schools or playing fields. In return the community is contracted to provide an amount of timber of a specified quality. Middlemen overcharge for goods they provide whilst undervaluing the timber provided or rejecting it for being of inferior quality. Final payment on delivered timber is repeatedly postponed thereby increasing the debt. The contracts that the communities sign states that they are not allowed to sell timber to anyone else or work for anyone else which traps them further into debt bondage.
