FORCED LABOUR IN BANGLADESH: A CASE STUDY OF CHILD DOMESTIC WORKERS IN CHITTAGONG.
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Research (IJAR) - Year 2019, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
In the age of human rights, it is quite surprising to think about forced labour or slavery-like practices. But, millions of people around the world are victims of forced labour and number is increasing quite significantly. In Bangladesh, thousands of children are working as domestic workers living inside the walls devoid of rights and privileges. In addition to this, often, they become victims of physical and mental harassment by their employers. There is no limited working hour for them with poor payment and other facilities. There is strict control over their movement inside and outside the house. Altogether, their life is dominated by employers and there is nothing they can do about it. Most of them are isolated from their families and have limited connections with them. All these situations indicate a strong case of forced labour and the response from the authority is not a strong one.
