Question

Short report on child labor

Answer 1

Child labour is an illegal act performed by the children in their little age by the involvement of some industrialists and businessmen all over India. Industrialists and businessmen generally chose child labour because of the efficient work in minimum time at low cost. And, children generally get involved in child labour because of their poverty and lack of education. People, who are very poor and cannot manage their two times food and clothes, become forced to send their kids and children to do some job at lowest payment instead of sending them to the school for education.

According to the survey of 2001, it was found that approximately 90 percent of the children were involved in productive activities as a supplement to their family income (23.8%) or improving their family income (66%). Tasks or activities, which are not involved in affecting the health and personal development of children or interfering in their schooling, cannot be counted as child labour. They can be taken as positive and no need to be eliminated. However, all those activities, affecting a child in all aspects (health, personal development, schooling, etc), are needed to be eliminated.

Answer 2

Hey Mate

Child labour is the practice of involving children below age 14 years in some economic activities as part time or full time. This practice is very harmful to the physical and mental development of the children. It keeps them away from the happy childhood and good memories with parents. Some of the primary causes of child labour are poverty, lack of facilities for proper schooling, growth of informal economy, etc. According to the national census of 1998, child labour had involved around 12.6 million children aged 4-15 years (total child population of age group 5-14 years was 253 million).

However, it was reduced to 4.98 million children in the nationwide survey of 2009-2010. According to the national census of 2011, total number of children involved in child labour (aged 5-14) was 4.35 million. Child labour is not a national problem only; it is a worldwide issue being hazardous day by day. Involving children (between age group 4-14 years) in any hazardous industries is a criminal offense, despite; it is very hard to eliminate it from the society.
