Child Labour

Child labor Child labor is one of themes that express strong emotions, beliefs, and opinions. Children are opposed to participating in labor activities because other activities such as education and games are at the core of development. However, child labor is a very difficult and complicated problem and often goes beyond emotions, beliefs, and opinions. Most of this relates to the understanding that economic, cultural, social, political and legal factors are part of the child's labor problems and are solutions to these problems.

The definition of child labor in ILO defines "It is mental, physical, social, or morally dangerous and harmful to children" and hinders or deprives children's study. The worst form of child labor is defined as exploitative or dangerous child labor, including all forms of slave labor and human trafficking. Currently, the industry which is essentially related to child labor in West Africa is cocoa. Since the series of violent cases more than 10 years ago, the chocolate industry has been working on eradicating extensive child labor in West African farms.

The International Child Labor Eradication Program (IPEC) has launched a targeted child labor campaign to advocate the prevention and abolition of all forms of child labor. The Global Music Anti-Child Labor Initiative is launched in 2013 and will help children participate in organized music events and education and protect children from child labor by socially excluded children. In 2004, the United States passed the 1938 revision of the Fair Labor Standards Law. With this amendment, certain children between the ages of 14 and 18 can work inside and outside the company using machined wood. It aims to respect the religious and cultural needs of Amish society in the United States. Amish believes that effective ways to educate children are to work. The new law makes it possible for Amish children to work with their families after passing through grade 8 at school.

Education is an important part of any effective effort to eliminate child labor. There are many interrelated explanations about child labor. There is no single factor that can explain its sustainability, and in some cases growth, completely. The way in which different levels of interaction interact will ultimately determine whether an individual child becomes a child laborer. Children's participation in the labor force is an infinite change depending on constant change and changes in market and social situation. This background is consistent with the flexibility of large unprotected large potential child labor force. Poverty and social exclusion, labor migration, discrimination, lack of adequate social protection, and educational opportunities all play a role in influencing the outcomes of child labor.
