由于欺骗性招募和债务质役,联合王国数百名移民接待工人可能陷入现代奴隶制。 Hundreds of migrant hospitality workers in the UK may be trapped in modern slavery due to deceptive recruitment and debt bondage.

慈善组织Unseen的一份新报告透露,联合王国招待业的数百名移徙工人——例如酒吧、餐馆、旅馆和营地——可能成为现代奴隶制的受害者,有些欠债在受到虚假承诺的诱惑后高达30 000英镑。 A new report by the charity Unseen reveals that hundreds of migrant workers in the UK's hospitality industry—such as bars, restaurants, hotels, and campsites—may be victims of modern slavery, with some owing debts up to £30,000 after being lured by false promises. 该慈善机构的求助热线记录到,2024年1月至2025年6月,与熟练工人签证路线相关的潜在受害者人数急剧上升,据报食品和饮料场所有485人,假日住宿有85人。 The charity’s helpline recorded a sharp rise in potential victims linked to the skilled worker visa route, with 485 cases reported in food and drink venues and 85 in holiday accommodation between January 2024 and June 2025. 工人往往被非法收取签证和赞助费,被迫进入贫穷的住房,如果他们大声疾呼,就会受到驱逐出境的威胁。 Workers are often charged illegal fees for visas and sponsorship, forced into poor housing, and threatened with deportation if they speak out. 在护理部门出现的类似剥削模式在招待方面正在出现,许多雇主未能支付招聘费用。 Similar exploitation patterns seen in the care sector are now emerging in hospitality, with many employers failing to cover recruitment costs. 英国移民部长承诺打击虐待。 The UK's migration minister has pledged to crack down on abuse.
