There have been reports of forced or bonded child labor in these industries/occupations.
* Countries included in this table are the 16 countries visited by U.S. Department of Labor officials for this report. The industries and occupations listed are not necessarily exhaustive, and the order in which they are listed is alphabetical and not an indication of the magnitude of child labor in each industry or occupation. The number of industries and occupations cited as employing child workers in a given country does not necessarily reflect the pervasiveness of child labor in that country, since there has been more extensive research on the incidence of child labor in some countries than others. |
