Ulhas:
Workers typically live in rented
tenements/slums. These can be on the rental basis.
Me:
Russia fortunately does not have slums. My CEO, who is Indian, once tried to
explain the concept to the Russian staff and they had problems grasping it.
Also, it is illegal to evict people from apartments under Russian law, even
if they don't pay their bills. Every apartmwent bloc usually has one or two
families who are known for just not bothering to pay -- the government can
neither evict them nor cut off their heating, water and so forth, because
each apartment block has a single line. You cut power to one apartment, you
cut power to all of them.
