## Resource

Migrant workers are falling victim to a modern-day slavery epidemic, trapped by deceptive contracts, overcrowded housing, withheld passports, and unpaid overtime—despite being legally recruited from countries like China, India, and Latin America. Over 50 million people worldwide are caught in this web of exploitation, often hidden behind legitimate businesses and unchecked by weak enforcement. When profit overrides human dignity and governments turn a blind eye, the result is a global crisis of labor rights that demands urgent action.
