Unfair competition from convict-made goods

  • Unfair competition from prison labour
  • Unfair competition from workers employed as forced labour

Where convicts are employed productively, the goods they produce may compete unfairly against products manufactured by workers employed under normal wage conditions. In some case labour camps are being used expressly for the production of export manufactures and raw materials.
