Abstract

Development is touching its peak daily in today's world, but Some issues remain constant. Child labor is the most underrated issue that cannot be controlled easily and increasing without any negotiations. When children are employed in jobs that rob them of their youth, prevent them from attending regular school, or are physically, intellectually, socially, or morally detrimental, this is referred to as child labor. Child labor is a major global issue that affects millions of children and their families. This form of exploitation prevents kids from exercising their right to education, healthy development, and safe childhood. The impact of child labor is far-reaching and can have long-lasting effects on children, their families, and communities. This form of exploitation deprives children of their right to education, healthy development, and safe childhood. The impact of child labor is far-reaching and can have long-lasting effects on children, their families, and communities. Children who are forced to work often experience physical and emotional harm, reduced opportunities for personal and academic development, and reduced future earning potential. Additionally, child labor perpetuates poverty and perpetuates the cycle of exploitation from generation to generation. The international community has made progress in addressing child labor, but much more needs to be done to eliminate this harmful practice and give kids the opportunity and support they need to succeed. The impact of child labor can only be fully addressed through a sustained and coordinated effort from governments, businesses, and civil society organizations despite being illegal in many countries, child labor remains a widespread problem, in particular in developing nations where poverty and a lack of educational opportunities encourage families to send their kids to work. The Impact of child labor includes impaired cognitive and physical development, decreased educational attainment, and perpetuation of the cycle of poverty.
