What strikes you about this - forced to work, deprived of their right to leave (ie passports taken off them), failure to pay them properly or at all. Conditions that can be considered slavery include ...domestic servants.
AND 2012 I know personally and through friends of quite a few people who have maids/nannies which would fit this description of their treatmtn! So I would not consider it a tiny minority
2012 - even slaves in roman times were clothed and fed but guess what, they were still slaves and called as such.
please see definition from Wikipedia
Slavery is a system under which people are treated as property and are forced to work.[1] Slaves can be held against their will from the time of their capture, purchase or birth, and deprived of the right to leave, to refuse to work, or to demand compensation. Conditions that can be considered slavery include debt bondage, indentured servitude, serfdom, domestic servants kept in captivity, adoption in which children are effectively forced to work as slaves, child soldiers, and forced marriage.[2]
