The practice of slavery was damaging to the Roman Empire because there were fewer jobs available for free Roman citizens. The use of slave labor in agriculture, mining and manufacturing decreased job opportunities for poor and underprivileged Roman citizens leading to economic inequality, resentment and potential unrest.
