"Dangerous" is a tradeoff between potential liability for the employer and saving money. Greedily pursuing short-term gains can often make workplaces more dangerous than they need to be.
"Humiliating" can be inherent to the structure of a job (it can feel humiliating to be obligated to do unpleasant tasks, or even simply to be stripped of personal agency), or it can be a source of pleasure for the employer. Some people enjoy dominating and belittling others, and subordinates without alternative jobs available are a ripe target.
