Abstract
The article analyzes one of the social phenomena in the labor market, which is part of the economic subsystem: exploitation at work. The author of this scientific study chose the following research design to obtain data on labor exploitation from individuals who have directly encountered and fallen victim to one of the latent and difficult-to-prove form of trafficking in human beings in a criminal justice area – a forced labor exploitation.
The author of this article prepared the list of questions and, with the consent of the respondents, conducted a survey with the mediation of the non-governmental organizations and Catholic organizations operating in Ukraine for the distribution questionnaire. The respondents were Ukrainian citizens, and they had been asked about various aspects of their exploitation of forced labor abroad, starting with how they began their search for work, what reasons prompted them to take this step, the circumstances of the signing (or non-signing) an employment contract, working and living conditions and the nature of the work, economic sectors related to the respondents labor activity, and ending the survey on the process of termination of the employment relations (whether formalized legally or not formalized in any way) including the negative consequences for the employee.
The collected, collated, and analyzed data provided elements to build sketchers of a paradigm on identification the features of possible labor exploitation. It also may be a useful tool for distinguishing the breaches of the requirements set up in the labor law and criminal offenses that entail criminal liability for forced labor exploitation.
