We understand that for many families, children must work in order to contribute to the family’s income or workload. Our aim is not to eliminate all child labour, but to address the worst forms of child labour – specifically dirty, dangerous and degrading work. We believe that no child should be placed in hazardous work environments that compromise their physical, emotional, social and spiritual development.
If a child must work, their work environment should be safe and supervised, with schedules that allow for them to attend school, get proper rest and have sufficient time for social development.
