Child labour refers to the exploitation of children through any form of work that deprives them of their childhood, interferes with their ability to attend regular schools and is mentally, physically, socially or morally harmful. This practice is a violation of children’s rights and is a serious global issue. It provides a lot of problems in society. Nowa day I am living in Islamabad, there are many children they work in different ways. When I see their work so once I so shock about that but after that I think they are not on the wrong way because there are many problems in our society. There is a lot of problems created by our political leaders, when they come in authority, they don’t provide easy way for public and poor people children’s started work in very early ages. They work in different industries,some common industries where child labour is prevalent include agriculture, mining, manufacturing and domestic serviceand they work in hotels and also started household work in other houses. Factors contributing to child labour include poverty, lack of access to quality education, cultural norms and limited enforcement of child labour laws.It perpetuates a cycle of poverty, as children who are denied education and decent working conditions are less likely to break out of the cycle in adulthood. So, it’s important for society to continue working towards eradicating child labour to ensure that all children have the opportunity to grow up in a safe, nurturing environment and receive a proper education.
