Labour Exploitation in Human Trafficking Law

The 2000 Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons Especially Women and Children, supplementing the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime provides the first internationally agreed definition of the human trafficking. However, due to its lack of clarity on exploitation, ambiguity arises regarding the delineation between labor rights violations and extreme exploitation. This book aims to clarify this legal gap by conceptualizing labor exploitation within criminal law.
