Modern Slavery in Construction & How Precast Can End It
Manage episode 506910030 series 3650782
Slavery was abolished in 1976. But take a walk past any construction site in India today, and you'll wonder if the industry got the memo.
In this hard-hitting episode, Roshan Baladevan exposes the hidden exploitation behind India's booming real estate — forced labor, debt traps, unsafe conditions, and how it silently affects the quality of the buildings we live and work in.
But this isn’t just a rant. It’s a call to action.
We break down:
- The dark realities of migrant workers trapped in modern-day bonded labor
- How this system directly leads to poor construction quality, high maintenance costs, and structural risks
- Why precast concrete technology isn’t just faster — it’s fairer, safer, and smarter
- Real-world examples of how factory-based systems are transforming lives and businesses across India
If you’re a builder, developer, or just someone who cares about where our country is heading — this episode will change how you look at construction forever.
