Sweatshop

• According to Wikipedia Encyclopedia a sweatshop
  is a working environment with very difficult or
  dangerous conditions, usually where the workers
  have few rights or ways to address their
  situation. This can include exposure to harmful
  materials, hazardous situations, extreme
  temperatures, or abuse from employers. Sweatshop
  workers are often forced to work long hours for
  little or no pay, regardless of any laws
  mandating overtime pay or a minimum wage. Child
  labor laws may also be violated.
