What is Bonded labor
Bonded labor, also known as debt bondage, is a form of modern-day slavery that is Common in Pakistan. It is a system in which a person is forced to work for a landlord to pay off a debt . Workers are often lured into debt with promises of high wages, but are then forced to work in poor conditions , no freedom of movement, and no ability to leave until the debt is repaid which can take years or even decades. The debt often accumulates due to high interest rates and other fees, making it impossible for the workers to ever repay.
Brick Slave Families eat Food only one time in a Single day and when they don’t work ,like when they are sick or there is rain( because rain stop work) they don’t get even Single food slot Which make their condition Worse.
Many of the workers in Bonded Labor are religious minorities Specially Christians . They are often subject to physical and verbal abuse, and their children are forced to work alongside with their Parents.
Workers in brick kilns typically work long hours, often from dawn until dusk, in hot and cramped conditions. They are required to perform repetitive tasks, such as mixing clay and molding bricks, which can cause repetitive strain injuries. They are also exposed to dust and smoke, which can lead to respiratory problems.
They are also paid very little only if they will make 1000 brick in a Single day, and the debt they owe to the kiln owner often accumulates rapidly due to high interest rates and other fees. They are not allowed to seek other employment.
Overall, working in brick kilns as a bonded laborer is an incredibly difficult and often dangerous experience, and one that is extremely hard to escape from without outside help.
