Child Labour

Intro
Hello, my name is Suriya Ragu. I am going to tell you about an important issue, that is not noticed by a lot people. It is about child labour. When a child’s job is hazardous to
child’s physical, moral, mental, or social development it’s know as child labour. Also, when the child’s work stops the child from attending school is also know as child labour. I
firmly believe child labour is a serious issue around the world and it needs to end. Child labour may not change a bit of your life but think about the others. According to
freethechildren.com,“ There are 218 million child labourers around the world.” Can you believe there are so many child labourers ? “Globally 1 in 6 children work,” says
compassion.com. That’s one-sixth of all children in the entire world ! That’s why I think this needs to end. Today, I am going to tell you about two issues that are involved with
child labour. First is health and second is skipping education because they are forced to work. Hope you learn about child labour, and soon will make a change.

Child labour is to harmful child’s health. It challenges, and affects child’s moral, mental, and social development which lowers their self esteem and confidence level. It’s also dangerous to the child’s physical health. In some conditions they have to work in
dangerous and unsafe environment such as mines, factories, chemical industries, farms, machinery, etc. In such places they are exposed to dangerous conditions which causes
diseases, injuries and death.“Worldwide, the ILO estimates that some 22,000 children are killed at work every year.” Can you see so many kids are killed at a young age
because of their work. Do you know there are many more children that injured because
of their work and they are not known ? If we stop child labour, we can prevent millions and million more kids form dying and getting injured.
Second is skipping education because they are forced to work
