If a worker's movement food and wages are all controlled by the employer what point is central in exploitation analysis?

Correct answer: Control and dependency

The direct answer is A: control and dependency. Exploitation is analysed by asking whether a worker can genuinely choose, leave, negotiate, and receive fair treatment. If the employer controls movement, food, and wages, the worker may become highly dependent and unable to refuse the work or escape unfair conditions. The reasoning is: extensive control reduces practical freedom; reduced freedom weakens genuine consent; weakened consent raises a serious exploitation or forced-labour concern. Option A is correct because it identifies the central relationship between power, dependence, and freedom. Option B is wrong because weather and travel may affect work but do not explain the employer’s control over the worker. Option C is wrong because voting and education are important rights but are not the central facts in this labour analysis. Option D is wrong because language and script do not determine whether work is forced. The exam cue is to notice who controls movement, food, wages, documents, and the ability to leave.
