"Arbejderne er tvunget til at bygge et stort palads."

Translation: The workers are forced to build a big palace.

Hang on, isn't 'er' plus past participle the perfect? I put 'have been forced' and it said it should be 'are forced'. But 'de er kommet' is they have come. So why is 'de er tvunget' not they have been forced?

[deactivated user]

they are forced = de er tvunget

they have been forced = de er blevet tvunget

It works pretty much the same way as in English.
