Part 3/7:
The Brazilian government intervened and halted construction at the site after it was revealed that the labor practices employed by the contractor, Yinyang Construction, were inhumane. Reports indicated that these workers were living in dreadful conditions. They slept on beds devoid of mattresses, shared a single bathroom with over 30 others, and faced unsanitary food conditions. The workers would rise at 4:00 a.m. to access the communal bathroom before starting their workday at 5:30 a.m., underscoring the grueling nature of their daily lives.
