Trafficking is a term to define transportation of people as if they were mere tools or property of somebody else. The people are used as slaves and transported among different countries for the purpose of labor exploitation and/or sexual exploitation. Women are used mostly as they work as homekeepers and are used as sex slaves. Trafficking is considered to be highly organized because no law enforcement agencies have been able to stop it. Children are exploited as well.
Trafficking is different from people smuggling because it involves the exploitation of people for forced labour and prostitution against their wills.
The forced laborers are mostly not paid anything and are kept with force or threats. If they are paid the wage is so low that they still cannot survive or escape their employers.
