Investigate Forced Labor in Tibetan Mines, Urges Rights Group
A prominent human rights organization has called for an urgent investigation into suspected forced labor practices within Tibetan mines. Citing credible reports, the group alleges that workers in these mines are subjected to harsh conditions and are compelled to toil against their will. Poverty levels in Tibetan areas are among the highest in Asia, often forcing families into desperate measures.
Several employees, often minors, are believed to be working under duress, compelled by threats, or through deceptive practices. The lack of proper health and safety measures exacerbates their suffering, increasing the risk of injury or even death.
The rights group emphasized that these labor practices degrade human dignity and flout basic worker rights. They called upon international bodies and governments worldwide to apply pressure on the perpetrators and ensure justice for the affected workers. Immediate action is urged to put an end to this appalling situation.
- Minors being subjected to labor.
- Poor working conditions and lack of safety measures.
- Violation of fundamental human rights.
If not addressed urgently, these troubling practices will continue to perpetuate suffering and exploitative labor, tarnishing the dignity and freedom of countless individuals.
