Labor Trafficking Story | Domestic Work
Fatima came to the United States on a visa to work as a housekeeper for a diplomat. Soon after she arrived, Fatima's employer took away her passport and she was made to work very long days, every day of the week. Since Fatima did not speak English and was unaware of her employment rights in the United States, she worked under these conditions for a long time before confiding in a friend who provided her with the National Human Trafficking Hotline number to seek assistance.
