Exploitation of labor is the act of treating workers unfairly 
That sounds terrible! Does that type of practice still occur?
Yes it does sadly.  Another fact is that it is said to be unfairly taking advantage of another person because of his or her inferior position 
That would be awful to face in the workplace! Is there anything the average worker can do to stop exploitation? 
Yeah it would be terrible :/  Not much information on that but i found that its a power relation between the worker and employee you can probably seek legal help when needed
I would definitely do that! Do unions offer employees protection?
Some do yes, another fact is that there is a direct affiliation with consumption in social theory
