A report by Unseen finds rising numbers of cases of forced labour and exploitation in the UK's care sector. One case included in the report describes a migrant worker who came to the UK on a skilled worker visa where she began a role as a domiciliary care worker. She was unaware of UK worker rights and her employer took advantage of this. She worked 12-hour shifts seven days a week. The only way She could have a day off work was to call in sick. Her rate of pay varied between different clients, ranging from £5 to £10.50 per hour.

A report by Unseen finds rising numbers of cases of forced labour and exploitation in the UK's care sector. One case included in the report describes a female migrant worker recruited from Zimbabwe to work in a residential care home. She did not receive a contract, and her employer charged her £10,000 for a certificate of sponsorship. She was then forced to work more than her agreed hours, sometimes working 18-hour shifts for up to 10 days in a row. She should have been paid the National Minimum Wage. However, deductions were made from her pay to recoup the £10,000, leaving her with as little as £200 per month. On some days she could not afford to eat.If she complained or spoke up about her rights, her employer threatened to report her to the Home Office and have her deported. They had also threatened to harm her and her family in Zimbabwe if she reported the situation.

A report by Unseen finds rising numbers of cases of forced labour and exploitation in the UK's care sector. One case included in the report describes a migrant worker who came to the UK from the Philippines on a skilled worker visa to work in a residential care home. She and her colleagues lived in the care home and were forced to share small rooms. Their employer was controlling - confiscating their phones, frequently searching their possessions, verbally abusing and shouting at them, and threatening to cancel their visas.

A report by Unseen finds rising numbers of cases of forced labour and exploitation in the UK's care sector. One case included in the report describes an Indian care worker whose employer took her passport. She, along with four others, were ordered to sign a three-year contract with the care company. Often her employer would drive her to and from clients’ homes. She would complete a 12-hour shift with one client and then be expected to go straight into another 12-hour shift supporting another client, often working longer than 24 consecutive hours without breaks. A concerned client let her sleep during a shift and provided her with food, as Divya was not earning enough money to buy provisions.

…Abuse and exploitation of workers are evident in all sectors of the UK economy. However, the risks are higher in the care sector than in other sectors because of the significant use of temporary labour and the conditions of employment…

Throughout 2022 and into 2023 the Helpline has seen a significant rise in the number of cases indicating labour abuse and forced labour in the care sector. Many involve foreign nationals. As the UK opens up new visa routes for employment to meet labour shortages the potential for exploitation increases. Many workers who come to the UK do not know their rights or how to raise a concern.

For many who come to the UK, debt bondage is a significant factor because they have borrowed in their home country to pay for unfair and unlawful recruitment practices, visa fees and travel costs to get to the UK. Many workers pay thousands of pounds to a third-party facilitator to help them navigate the recruitment and visa process. Many are unable to repay the debt, making them more vulnerable to exploitation in the UK. Often, workers are also charged large fees, directly by their employers, for certificates of sponsorship…
