LABOR EXPLOITATION

Have you ever thought about job conditions in all the country? We all tend to think about our situation and the sirtuation of those who are close to us, but, what about the worst job situations in the country?

One thing to consider is that the majority of the people who suffer this bad conditions are immigrants who come from underdeveloped or more poor countries. They come to Spain looking for a better life situation and what they find is people taking advantage of their needs and desperation to use them as "slaves". They are not slaves, but their situation is practically the same. In a lot of cases, no one forces them to work, but they have to do it in order to eat, so they have to put up with labor exploitation. This consists in working for too many hours, in very bad conditions and for a miserable salary.

In addition to this, for a lot of Spanish people immigrants are seen as "job thieves", who come here and steal jobs that should be for people of the country. Personally, I do think immigrants take jobs Spanish people could do, but many times is because people in the country don't want to do them, because of their bad conditions. 

To conclude, I think we should pay more attention to this kind of situations, which are more common than we think, because immigrant people should be considered the same way as anyone, as people.
