INTRODUCTION
Children are the greatest gift to humanity and
Childhood is an important and impressionable
stage of human development as it holds the
potential to the future development of any
society. Children who are brought up in an
environment, which is conducive to their
intellectual, physical and social health, grow up
to be responsible and productive members of
society. Every nation links its future with the
present status of its children. By performing
work when they are too young for the task,
children unduly reduce their present welfare or
their future income earning capabilities, either
by shrinking their future external choice sets or
by reducing their own future individual
productive capabilities. Under extreme
economic distress, children are forced to forego
educational opportunities and take up jobs
which are mostly exploitative as they are
usually underpaid and engaged in hazardous
conditions.
 REASONS OF
CHILD LABOUR
Child labour and exploitation are the result of
many factors like: -

1. Including poverty
2. Social norms condoning them
3. Lack of decent work opportunities for
adults and adolescents
4. Migration
5. Emergencies.
These factors are not only the cause but also a
consequence of social inequities reinforced by
discrimination.
PREVENTIVE MEASURES OF
CHILD LABOUR
Child labour and other forms of exploitation
are preventable through integrated approaches
that strengthen child protection systems as well
as simultaneously addressing poverty and
inequity, improve access to and quality of
education and mobilize public support for
respecting children’s rights.
Teachers and others in the education system
can be frontline supporters to protect children
and can alert other stakeholders such as social
workers to situations where children display
signs of distress or indicate they work long
hours. Getting children out of work and into
school also requires broader changes in public
policy to empower families to choose education
over exploitative labour.
 Government measures to
eradicate Child Labour in
India
Child Labour (Prohibition and Regulation)
Act (1986) to prohibit the engagement of
children in certain employments and to
regulate the conditions of work of children in
certain other employments
Child Labour (Prohibition and Regulation)
Amendment Act, 2016: The Amendment
Act completely prohibits the employment of
children below 14 years.
The amendment also prohibits the
employment of adolescents in the age
group of 14 to 18 years in hazardous
occupations and processes and regulates
their working conditions where they are
not prohibited.

 Suggestions to
reduce Child Labour
1.Stakeholders must take responsibility
Children do not work because they want
to, and parents would ideally much
rather see their children receive an
education. Child labour is socially
accepted when people see no other
option but to send their children to
work.
2.Increased access to education
Removing children from child labour
does not mean that they will
automatically attend school. Schooling
can be expensive, or of very poor quality,
and so some parents think sending their
children to work is the obvious
alternative.

Provide support for children

3.Provide support for children
Children are also at greater health and safety
risk in the workplace for a various number
of reasons.
4.Improve economic growth
As many as 7.8 million Indian children are
forced to earn a livelihood even if they also
attend school. Many of these children drift
away from the path of education completely
and get end up in child labour.
5.Engage with the Sustainable
Development Goals
We know that the 17 Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs), adopted in
2015, will only succeed if we work towards
the goals together. The sub-Saharan African
region is among those affected by situations
of extreme poverty, state fragility and crisis,
and by natural disasters and population
displacements associated with global climate
change, which in turn are known to
heighten the risk of child labour.
CONCLUSION
The number of child labour today, has
been increased to a great extent and it
gets continued generation to
generation due to lack of education,
moral values and manners. Also, the
major cause of child labour is poverty,
whereas the major cause for poverty is
child labour. ultimately the collective
cause is lack of education, which needs
to be corrected in order to reform and
build a beautiful society.
