Child Labour

in #life7 years ago

Bangladesh is a developing country. The poverty stricken people are deprived of the basic necessaries of life such as food, shelter, clothing, and education.

All the child labourers in bangladesh are manual workers.They have to work very hard to earn their living and the work is usually extremely unfit for them.

At the age of eight, a child is a servant at households. They are obliged to work in cheap hotels and shops. Many children are found breaking stones or bricks for house-building. They are also found doing dangerous work like welding.

Some children work as street hawkers selling dufferent items to the passers by.Some work in factories, some polish boots and some even work as rickshaw pullers.

Child laboures are helpless and employers take full advantages ofbthis condition. They are given the least wages possible for the maximum labour/hours.Sometims they need to work for ten to fourteen hours but are not paid for their overtime. At households they are tortured physically and mentally. They are usually given insufficient food and as a result, they suffer from malnutrition.

It is said that the children are the backbone of a country. Our government should think about thus grim situation of child labour and promulgate a law against ill-treatment towards them. We have to be conscious about this crucial problem while there is still time.
