Fgirl is fully committed to raising awareness of human trafficking. We are a private online company that has chosen to be aware of this issue. We are committed to implementing internal anti-trafficking initiatives and to engaging in awareness-raising efforts to combat human trafficking issues globally. If we become aware of a case of trafficking, we will take swift internal action and cooperate enthusiastically with local and international law enforcement authorities whose mission it is to combat this despicable violation of human rights. To report a suspected case of trafficking, please email us at: [email protected].
We also encourage you to report any suspicion of trafficking to the relevant authorities.
In Switzerland, it is legal to engage in prostitution and to provide independent escort services. However, some people use the laws in their favour by violating human rights. If a woman's choice to prostitute herself in Switzerland is her one and only choice, she is treated with dignity. On the other hand, if a person, whether Swiss or foreign, is forced into prostitution, this is a flagrant violation of fundamental human rights. In order to protect the dignity of the individual, it is important to combat such abuses effectively. Many countries do not have the necessary resources to ensure the safety, healthcare and education of their citizens. And they are unable to focus on improving the lives of their people. This is not the case in Switzerland, where efforts have been made to combat many of the abuses that have come to light.
The website of Human Trafficking Help and Resources is a global NGO helpline responsible for providing signs and definitions of abuse as a victim. If you have any suspicions about this type of behaviour, you can visit their website and learn more about it.
