Queues Laravel Jobs

Hi, recently at work I ran into a problem at work which required the use of laravel queue:work, during testing in my local environment (win 10 + wsl ubuntu LAMP stack), it worked as imagined: Using the database driver, it would asynchronously fire jobs in the background, however when I pushed into production, the server returned the error of pcntl_signal is disabled. Digging deeper I realized that this is a security risk and found a work-around, which solved the problem. I was wondering if someone could offer an in-depth explanation of how queue:listen, queue:work actually work in the background.
