It is difficult to recognize victims of
trafficking in human beings. It is seldom clear cut.

You do not have to become an expert.

But you can take a closer look.

 

The woman needs help if:

• she tells you that she is being forced into prostitution
• she tells you that she has been raped
• she is being abused
• she is being exploited
• she has extremely high debts with the owner of the brothel
• she does not have freedom of movement
• she is being constantly watched
• a third person tells you that you can do anything you want with her
• she is not allowed to refuse a client
• she is not allowed to refuse certain sexual practices
• she does not have the chance to insist on using condoms
• she receives very little (less than 40% of the price you pay)
  or no money at all for her work
• she has to be available around the clock
• her passport has been taken away from her
