UN finds undocumented people particularly vulnerable to trafficking
The UN Office on Drugs and Crime has released the Global Report on Trafficking in Persons 2020, which stresses the vulnerability to human trafficking of undocumented migrants and people who are in desperate need of employment, pointing to the fear of being deported as one of the reasons. On trafficking for forced labour, the report states that, generally, this is the result of a deterioration of labour rights (lower salaries, longer working hours, reduced protections and informal employment) across a range of economic sectors (agriculture, construction, fishing industry, mining, street trading and domestic servitude).
