Sexual exploitation drives 37% rise in profits from forced labour, ILO 

Sex traffickers are making an average of £21,000 a year from each of their victims as profits from forced labour around the world soar, according to new estimates from the International Labour Organisation (ILO).
The ILO, a UN agency, said the annual global profits from forced labour had risen to $236bn (£185bn) as record numbers of people were forced into modern slavery.

Sexual exploitation is by far the most lucrative form of forced labour. While only 27% of people subjected to forced labour were sexually exploited, the ILO said, the profits generated by this crime accounted for 73% of the total illegal profits from all forms of forced labour.
The ILO said that its new estimates on forced labour showed a 37% rise
