Human trafficking involves the use of force, fraud, or coercion to obtain some type of labor. This can be found across all ages; in fact, the average age is 12 years old. “80 percent of human trafficking victims are women and half of them are children.” (Werft, 2016)

Number 2 is forced labour. Victims of forced labour can be found in factories, on farms, doing construction work and more. Victims are made to work for very little or no pay.

Number 3 is domestic servitude. Traffickers will often take victims identification papers and travel documents to limit freedom. Victims are forced to work in homes as carers, maids, and domestic help.

Human trafficking and domestic slavery are both hidden very well amongst society. Domestic slavery is usually found in adult ages to make it seam less out of place in contrast to human trafficking which is found most in teenagers.

In summary human trafficking will continue as long as there is demand for its victims. More awareness must be raised in order to protect our loved ones.
