Topic > Middle Eastern workers are unskilled workers from underdeveloped nations who transport to another country and become domestic servants to improve their lives and their family to get better materials and social conditions. Many of these workers come from poor nations such as Southeast Asia and Africa and lack education and resources. For years it has persisted in its attempt not to protect domestic workers in the Middle East. Many of them are abused, paid low wages and almost no free time, are usually unable to leave home and have excessive working hours. Many will face abuse, violence and discrimination in their daily lives and may even be forced to become victims of trafficking. Looking at this topic from the perspective of conflict theory, I think it would be addressed by placing domestic workers at the bottom of the social class, they have a very low status. They are treated with very little respect and suffer physical, sexual and psychological abuse. Domestic workers are treated like servants 24 hours a day. They have to choose whether to report their incidents to the police and fear being deported back and losing the small wages they earn to get better materials and social conditions for themselves and their families or not report their incidents and be treated as they are. A migrant worker's power is in the hands of employers because they will keep their immigration documents and can confiscate their passports. Employers consider these domestic workers as their property. I agree with this perspective because there are many cases where domestic workers have resorted to suicide due to horrible paper shortage. Many obese people avoid asking for help and often feel discriminated against and misunderstood by both the public and their doctors. They also said obesity is the hallmark of type 2 diabetes, which up to 85% suffer from. Furthermore, Canadian children have become progressively overweight and obese. Children aged 5 to 17 are 19.7% overweight and 11.7% obese, up from 15% in 1978. In 2012, 19% of Canadian men and 18% of women were classified as obese. They also mentioned statistics from early adulthood: in 2012, 41.3% of Canadian men and 26.9% of women were classified as overweight, and 19% of men and 18% of women were classified as obese, the combined rates have remained stable since 2010. Their presentation gave me awareness of how significant obesity is and how it has progressively grown in our society.
