    Slavery and forced labor are two distinct concepts. Slavery refers to the ownership and control of individuals as property, where they are deprived of their freedom and treated as commodities. On the other hand, forced labor involves the coercion of individuals to work against their will, often through threats or violence, but they are not considered property. Therefore, slavery and forced labor are not the same, making the statement false.
