Is human trafficking strictly slavery/coercive, or does it lump in all smuggling of sex workers, irrespective of the presence of consent/willingness?

Slavery is alive and well in the world today, and is not simply limited to sex trafficking.

According to https://www.humanrightsfirst.org/resource/human-trafficking-.... Only about 20% are sexually exploited, with the majority used for labor.
