Child Labor

The child labor is a persistent social phenomenon in the developing world and specifically in Pakistan. In the last decay, the sensitive issue of child labor has got the attention of policymakers, statesmen, and researchers. Any exact information on child labor is usually hard to come by as most of the children work in the unorganized informal sector, which is neither regulated by labor laws nor is monitored by any organization.

In this regard, other measures such as poverty reduction programs, more facilities for education and vocational training are indispensable
