Answer:

Convict Laborers

Step-by-step explanation:

Unable to quit or strike, and not paid for their work, convict laborers were forced to accept whatever the working conditions were in the places where they were leased. In some companies, free and convict laborers worked side-by-side. Convict labor was always reliable, and that made it attractive to employers.
