Bonded labor or debt bondage is the worst form of exploitative employer-employee relations that exist. The workers are trapped into forced labor using the bait the debt bondage. According to various research studies, bonded labor prevails mainly in agriculture, rice-mills, domestic service, brick kilns, stone quarries and sericulture. Currently, the trends are changing, with new forms of bondage coming into existence. In Bonded Labour system a worker casts her/his labour against an advance. Beyond extreme economic exploitation in the system, employer wields absolute physical and psychological control over the bonded labour sapping all humanity from the labourer.
