Question

Child labor is a punishable offense. Explain​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Companies including Gap,[15] Primark,[16] Monsanto[17] have been criticised for child labour in their products. The companies claim they have strict policies against selling products made by underage children for their own profit, but there are many links in a supply chain making it difficult to oversee them all.[17] In 2011, after three years of Primark's effort, BBC acknowledged that its award-winning investigative journalism report of Indian child labour use by Primark was a fake. The BBC apologised to Primark, to Indian suppliers and all its viewers.[18][19] Another company that has come under much scrutiny was Nike. Nike was under pressure to speak up about alleged sweatshops that harbored children that the company was exploiting to make their sneakers. Since then Nike has come out with a separate web page that specifically points out where they get their products from and where their products are manufactured.

Here is your answer ☺️☺️

Child labour is any work performed by children that is dangerous or harmful to them and affects their physical and mental development. This form of work deprives children of their childhood, their potential and their dignity, and interferes with a child’s ability to attend and participate in school fully by obligating them to leave school prematurely.

The law on child labour in India provides for punishments for illegal labour of children but does not completely disallow the employment of children. Certain forms of work done by children like running a family business or performing as a child artist, etc. are allowed under certain conditions.

Even though the law is strict in its provisions against child labour, such labour is very much prevalent - the lack of awarness of the law and the lack of implementation by the authorities being the key reasons. On World Day Against Child Labour. which falls on 12 June, let’s take a look at the law on child labour in India and how the law regulates the conditions of children working in certain occupations.
