National Service
Eritrea makes extensive use of compulsory labour through "national service". After a 6-month period of military training, persons may work on government projects or with private enterprises, with the private company paying a charge to the government but the worker only receiving standard national service wages.
See the decision of the United Kingdom Asylum and Immigration Tribunal in MA (CG).
