How to protect yourself from labor slavery?
Unfortunately, labor slavery is not just a scary tale for those who are trying to keep relatives or friends from looking for work abroad.

Never give your personal documents to an intermediary company, especially your passport!

No one will require you to provide a personal document for employment, especially European employers.
To study all the nuances of working abroad in advance, even before signing an employment contract. The reason is that the salary of foreigners working abroad is also tax deductible, and the amount of payment can be very unpleasant for you. Therefore, choose countries with a system and the amount of taxation that you consider acceptable, and look for a job with such a salary that you have enough to pay taxes and a decent life.
These are just a few tips from a long list of risks and how to prevent them - remember that working abroad, no matter how attractive it looks, still involves moving to an unfamiliar place where you will be vulnerable in many situations. Therefore, you need to study all the nuances before deciding to move. And for those who have no idea at all about how to travel abroad to work, the first step is to find a safe intermediary.

Blind trust may be appropriate with friends or loved ones, but it has no place in finding work abroad. All scammers will tell tales that work is legal, they will promise you huge profits and heavenly life is their earnings, so they will do everything to mislead you.
More advertisements on the Internet and on the porches, most of the promises in them are fraudulent. There are many criminals in the world, so guarantees of free visa processing, high salaries, travel to another country, and provision of housing and food should alert anyone.
More details on the promise of quick and problem-free employment abroad - this process is not as cloudless as you would like. Even for narrow-minded professionals and mercenaries with very attractive education and qualifications, the process can take months and require a significant investment of time and money.
Gather as much information as possible about the intermediary company that helps you find a job. The firm must have statutory documents, appropriate licenses, permits, and have an official legal status.
