Sweatshops
Sweatshops are workplaces (i.e. factories) that are crowded with poor or illegal working conditions, such as poor ventilation, no breaks, inadequate workspace, insufficient lighting or high temperatures, abuse, harassment, etc. Employees at sweatshops generally work for very long hours with low pay, often under legal issues and face health impacts related to the poor working conditions just mentioned.
