In many cases the victims were forced to work in quarrying and coal-mining. Some worked in chemical industries and various other industries. They were given insufficient food and most perished. A small number of the victims were employed in non-manual jobs, such as office work. Some had to sort the good that Jews and others had brought with them. A very small number were employed in the Sonderkommandos (special squads) and had to help with cremating the corpses of victims who had been gassed. It is known that a peculiarly revolting feature of the Holocaust was that some victims were forced in a sense to help in the process of their own destruction.
