Child labour is a work for young children ages 6 to 15 years old who are not meant to be working. But are forced to work. Children are usually enslaved for money due to poverty. They don’t go to school and miss out on education to know the fault of their own.
Children are being enslaved and beaten up they are also forced to work without stopping. They work in factories such as the making of chocolate, in mining such as gold, charcoal, chrome, diamonds, emeralds and coal. Sometimes they are work in the distribution of drugs.
Child labour are happening in this countries the Pacific, Asia, Africa, Mongolia, Colombia cote D'ivoire, Zimbabwe and Brazil. There are many ways children are used to do work in construction, agriculture, domestic helpers in manufacturing or factories or used to fight in wars. For some children receive no pay, have no protection they get sick and ill and sometimes injured they don’t receive good food and place to sleep This is the truth of child labor on what is happening.
In the ILO, child labour is defined as using young children to work in dangerous and unsuitable conditions. Children below 16 years of age work in factories and mines to provide for their family. They don’t go to school nor get good education. Now ILO are trying to make rules to help and protect young children not to be used as slave, labourers, in drug trafficking and even to fight in wars.
What can we do to stop child labour? A big problem all over the world. What can we do to help children who had been used in labour? Child labour is not fair. Children deserve more. They should be treated well. These children who are being forced to work do not deserve that. If other children are living freely why can’t other children be free too? People should think before they act. By Amanda
