With no apparent sense of irony, a charity opposing the exploitation of workers is advertising for three volunteer interns - unpaid, of course.
The three positions last six months each and involve spending two to four days a week in the offices of the Anti Trafficking and Labour Exploitation Unit, a legal support charity which provides representation and advice for victims.
A footnote to the job ad explains that since the role is voluntary with no compulsory responsibilities, it's not covered by minimum wage legislation, allowing the lawyers to pay their interns nothing besides travel expenses of up to £10 a day.
