Spanish term
(TRABAJADORES) PENADOS
A clause in an employment contract. I know what it means, but I'm used to expressing it informally and in slang terms ('doing time'…), but would appreciate some input regarding the formal term normally used in this context, in American or UK English, and other variants would be interesting too.
