RESEARCH REPORT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The project is about a very controversial issue child labor. The report talks about world-wide problem of child labor and how different countries are exploiting children by making them work for longer hours and gaining benefit more out of it. Child labor is a multi-dimensional issue and the organizations involved in condemning it have their own perspectives, objectives and interests. With no intentions of demystifying this complex, one would focus on the difference between child labor and child work, and possible consequences of deliberate or unapprised exercise of the two terms interchangeably. Child labor reflects the violation of child rights leading to exploitation and deprivations of all kinds. Child work reflects social inequity and insecurity, dearth of social safety networks, magnitude of poverty, paucity of opportunities for health and education, and financial independence. The report also states the reasons behind child labor like a very common reason is poverty and lack of education. It further talks about different ways to stop this problem. In the end the report is concluded that child labor is a curse and it should be finished from its root to make this world a happy place to live.

RESEARCH REPORT
OBSERVATION In Pakistan we observed that from long span of time the percentage of child labor increases a lot. Above 40% of child labor working in manufacturing sectors. Children’s do work because to support their families which are living under the dominance of poverty. Many NGO’S are fighting against child labor but still child labor exist in Pakistan. As for as technology increase child labor also increases throughout the world. The constitutional act against child labor is In-efficient that is not completely implemented by Government. And also lack of resources, literacy rate, poverty, inflation and unemployment are major causes of child labor.

RESEARCH REPORT
INTRODUCTION TO CHILD LABOR God has given human beings the boon of wisdom and discretion to think upon the signs of the universe and to draw conclusions. That is the reason why they disclose the hidden facts of it and its structure and have made remarkable progress in many walks of life. Children are the flowers of heaven. They are the most beautiful and purest creation of God. They are innocent both inwardly and outwardly. No doubt, they are the beauty of this world. Early in the morning when the children put on different kinds of clothes and begin to go to schools for the sake of knowledge, we feel a specific kind of joy through their innocence. But there are also other children, those who cannot go to schools due to financial problems, they only watch others go to schools and can merely wish to seek knowledge.It is due to many hindrances and difficulties; desperate conditions that they face in life. Having been forced to kill their aspirations, dreams and other wishes, they are pressed to earn a living for themselves and for their families. It is also a fact that there are many children who play a key role in sustaining the economically life of their family without which, their families would not be able to make ends meet. These are also part of our society who have forgotten the pleasures of their childhood. Child labour is the employment of children at regular and sustained labour. This practice is considered exploitative by many countries and international organizations. Child labour was utilized to varying extents through most of history, but entered public dispute with the beginning of universal schooling, with changes in working conditions during industrialization, and with the emergence of the concepts of workers' and children's rights. Child labour is still common in some places where the school leaving age is lower.
BAHRIA UNIVERSITY
Child labour is common in some parts of the world, and can be factory work, mining, prostitution, quarrying, agriculture, helping in the parents' business, having one's own small business (for example selling food), or doing odd jobs. Some children work as guides for tourists, sometimes Page 7
RESEARCH REPORT combined with bringing in business for shops and restaurants (where they may also work as waiters). Other children are forced to do tedious and repetitive jobs such as: assembling boxes, polishing shoes, stocking a store's products, or cleaning. However, rather than in factories and sweatshops, most child labour occurs in the informal sector, "selling many things on the streets, at work in agriculture or hidden away in houses — far from the reach of official labour inspectors and from media scrutiny." And all the work that they did was done in all types of weather; and was also done for minimal pay. According to UNICEF, there is an estimated 250 million children aged 5 to 14 in child labour worldwide, excluding child domestic labour. The most widely rejected forms of child labour include the military use of children as well as child prostitution.

RESEARCH REPORT
Pakistan lacks adequate system of child labour statistics Pakistan still lacks an adequate national system of child labour statistics which could provide reliable quantitative information on the number of working children. The statistical programme should also provide baseline information on the reference child population engaged in what Convention No. 138 terms ‘work or employment’, of which child labour is a subset. Information of child labour in the so- called ‘unconditional worst forms’ is an especially important and challenging component of a national statistical programme on child labour. Child labour is widely recognized as a major hindrance to achieve the Education For All (EFA) goals. Incidence of children’s work also declined during that period. The ILO’s most recent global report on child labour emphasized the important contribution that action against child labour can make to the Education For All process. Children living in rural areas attend school less than their urban counterparts regardless of their working status. Child labour not only represents a severe obstacle to school attendance, it also interferes with the educational performance of children who combine school and work. Street children, child beggars, child porters, child rag- pickers, child scavengers and child domestic workers are the worst forms of child labour and require government’s plan of action to curb them.

CHILDREN: LABOURERS OF NECESSITY Millions of children in developing countries (and even in developed countries) are forced to work in order to support their families. Reliable child labour statistics are scant due to the reluctance of many governments to acknowledge the problem. The International Labor Organization (ILO) and the United Nations Children Emergency Fund (UNICEF) estimate the total number of child workers to be between 200 and 250 million, 95 percent of which are in developing countries.

RESEARCH REPORT What exactly is ‘Child Labour’? Child Labour is the natural outcome of extenuating circumstances, which evolved when the compelling forces of abject poverty, burgeoning population, and non-existent facilities of health, education and welfare, exploited the deprived and disadvantaged populace." Many organizations and governments round the world actively campaign for the abolishment of Child Labour. The fate of children banned from Bangladesh’s garment industry four years ago is a case in point. Deprived of much needed income, most of the children were forced to take on harmful, less well-paid work, including prostitution." Not surprisingly most children work to support their families. A child labourer’s mother says, "No parent wants to see their child work; it is because of economic pressure and poor standards of education." For most children, this work is just a form of apprenticeship. Child Labour as long as it is voluntary and the working conditions are good is not bad. Even the child labourers themselves agree.

Organized child abuse in south Punjab The place called Munda Khana or child prostitutes’ den housed such 10 to 15 child sex workers who had to sleep with their customers. The master of the den namely Dushman would charge Rs50 from each customer and give Rs25 to the child as wages. After a week, another Munda Khana adopted Yasir. “Every child sex worker has to retire from the occupation after attaining puberty,” says Yasir, now 16-year-old who begs and sleeps on roads.
BAHRIA UNIVERSITY
Page 10
RESEARCH REPORT Presently, over 50 child sex houses are functioning in the city where nearly 500 children are at service. Child abuse at a commercial level is not only done in DG Khan but in other nearby towns like Taunsa and Kotaddu. Some hotels in Multan provide child sex workers on demand. Multan District Police Officer Munir Chishti said sodomy was very rare in his district. Multan District Coordination Officer Mukhtar Babar admitted that child abuse had reached an alarming level in southern districts, adding that the Punjab government was also paying attention to the problem. Dera Social Welfare District Officer Ghulam Abbas Dasti said a children’s home was being set up and another centre sheltering children, Nigehbaan, would set up at a cost of Rs198 million.

Investigating Child Slave Labor Although our modern American society respects the rights of children through various labor laws, Child Slave Labor is still ever more present in our world today. As Dan Mcdougall reports in his article for “The Observer,” innocent children are forced to work in rough conditions and long hours to produce clothing for Gap Kids: Through this description, Mcdougall uncovers the distinct reality that is child slave labor by exposing the personal story of Amitosh, a child slave working at a Gap Kids factory located in New Delhi, India. Despite Gap’s efforts in 2004 to abolish all child slave labor producing factories making clothing for their BAHRIA UNIVERSITY
Page 11
RESEARCH REPORT various chains, abusive subcontractors who continue to try and lower their cost of production to meet the strong demands for cheap clothing from the west still use cheap child slave labor. “ The International Labour Organization, part of the UN, estimates 284,000 child laborers work on cocoa farms [in the Ivory Coast]... Americans have already responded negatively after learning of the prominent child labor force in the cocoa farming industry. Various lawsuits have been filed against chocolate companies that import their cocoa from the Ivory Coast such as Nestlé. With a workforce of about 284,000 child slaves, many of which were tricked into working on these cocoa farms, the pro-active lawsuits against such companies were much needed. there. Although the demand of cheap labor in China is a major stimulus to their economy, the Chinese government has taken action towards breaking up labor rings which mainly utilize the work of forced child slave labor. In “The New York Times,” David Barboza reports the efforts of the Chinese government in breaking up “a child labor ring that forced children from poor, inland areas to work in booming coastal cities, acknowledging that severe labor abuses extended into the heart of its export economy” (Barboza). (Barboza) The cruel and unjust reality of child slave labor can be seen in various industries which are producers of goods that are sold in stores across the United States including the clothing industry, the cocoa harvesting agricultural industry as well as the toy manufacturing industry. Although many steps have already been taken to not only improve the working conditions and labor laws for children in these industries, but also to rescue abducted children who were forced into labor; much more still needs to be done in order to ensure that every product sold by companies in the United States is not produced by the hands of an innocent child slave laborer.
ARTICLE 5 Write up : By: Amin Ahmed June 12, 2007 Tuesday
Child labour in Pakistan continues to rise As the World Day against Child Labour on Tuesday focuses on the elimination of child labour in agriculture, the volume of child labour in Pakistan continues to rise; whereas globally some 70 per cent of child labour is found in agriculture; many of them engaged in forced and hazardous activities. Male child labourers outnumbered female child labourers in both urban and rural areas, while the BAHRIA UNIVERSITY
Page 12
RESEARCH REPORT contribution of rural areas in child labour was about eight times higher than that of urban areas. Among male employed children elementary (unskilled) occupations were the most prevalent. Craft and related trade activities are ranked second and absorb about 19 per cent of male working children. Male child labour is more educated than female.

PROBLEM DEFINITION The fight against child labor is a real challenge for many of the States. It is worth taking up the challenge; what is at stake is the future of young people and hence of society itself. This fight is also a challenge for the world. We should all strive to solve this problem to make this world a better place to live.
PROBLEM STATEMENT: “What are the forces which enforce child to do work behind the economy?” BAHRIA UNIVERSITY

RESEARCH REPORT
IDENTIFICATION OF VARABLES
A variable is any thing that can on differing or varying values. Following are the types of variable that we identified in our research: 1. Dependent variable 2. Independent variable 3. Moderating variable 4. Intervening variable
DEPENDENT VARIABLE: Dependent variable is the variable of primary interest to the researcher. In other words it is the main variable that lends itself for investigation as a viable factor. In this research report dependent variable is “CHILD LABOR ENFORCED BY ECONOMY”. It is due to because our whole research is moving on the basis of this variable. So dependent variable is: • “child labor enforced by economy”
INDEPENDDENT VARIABLE:
An independent variable is one that influences the dependent variable in either a positive or negative way. With each unit of increase in independent variable, there is BAHRIA UNIVERSITY
Page 14
RESEARCH REPORT an increase os decrease in dependent variable also. So in our research “poverty, literacy rate and unemployment” is the independent variables. These factors influence the dependent variable either in a positive way or in a negative way depending on situation.
MODERATING VARIABLE: Moderating variable is one that has a strong contingent effect on the independent variable-dependent variable relationship. “cost of child labor” is the moderating variable in our research. It is due to because it is low cost incurred on child labor and get huge work from them.
INTERVENING VARIABLE: Intervening variable is • Profitability
THEORATICAL FRAMEWORK
The theoretical framework is the foundation on which the entire research project is based. It is a logically developed, described and elaborated network of association among the variable deemed relevant to the problem situation. Few basic features of the theoretical framework have been discussed now: 1. Identification and labeling of variables: DEPENDENT VARIABLE: INDEPENDENT VARIABLES: Child labor enforced by economy
MODERATING VARIABLE: Cost of child labr BAHRIA UNIVERSITY
INTERVENING VARIABLE: poverty Profitability Literacy rate Page 15
RESEARCH REPORT
Unemployment
2. How two or more variables are related to one another? This relationship is directly proportional, that child labor enforced by economy of country, cost incurred on child laborer is directly related. 3. Schematic diagram are as follows: Poverty Child labor enforced by economy
Literacy rate
Unemployment
Cost of child labor
Profitability
DEVELOPMENT OF HYPOTHESES
A hypothesis is a logically conjectured relationship between two or more variables expressed in the form of testable statement. Relationships are conjectured on the basis of the network o associations established in the theoretical framework formulated for the research study.
NULL HYPOTHESIS: “child labor enforced by the economy” is our null hypothesis. ALTERNATE HYPOTHESIS: “child labor is not enforced by the economy” is our alternate hypothesis. LEVEL OF SIGNIFICANCE: “0.05” is our level of significance CALCULATION: BAHRIA UNIVERSITY

RESEARCH DESIGN Research design is a step by step process. It provides the basis for testimony. The need of the research itself determines the methodology and the design of the research. Detail of study includes: • Purpose of the study • Types of investigation • Extent of researcher interference • Study setting • Unit of analysis • Time horizon BAHRIA UNIVERSITY
Page 17
RESEARCH REPORT PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: Our purpose of study is “Hypothesis testing” because in this research we test our hypothetical statement which we developed in previous step. TYPES OF INVESTIGATION: Our type of investigation is “correlational” because we find the important variables or factors that contribute their part in percentage increase in labor child. STUDY SETTING: Nature of our research is of “non contrived” because we do our research in natural environment and not in Artificial environment that is not in labs. UNIT OF ANALYSIS: In our research unit of analysis is “population” because in this research, questioner are filled by everyone who is the part of society. TIME HORIZON: Our study is “one-shot” or “cross-sectional studies” because in this research data are gathered just once in order to answer research questions.

We test the hypothesis and conclude that people prefer Toyota over Honda due to several reasons. This conclusion is drawn from the above facts and figures as well as from the above findings. people have mostly 1 to 2 cars in their home. They prefer Toyota over honda and most likely to give an edge to Toyota over honda. There are several reasons due to which people prefer toyota over honda. Toyota provide safety to its users, it gives comfort. while driving toyota, traveller feels and get a healthy environment. Cool feeling in summer and get hot in winter is a proof of tremendous environment. Toyota has an executive look. It is durable and less fuel consuming as compared to Honda. One of the main reason of why people prefer Toyota over Honda is the re-salability of Toyota.

Based on the conclusion and the facts, We recommend that Toyota must have to adopt competetive strategies and implement innovative ideas in order to maintain it status. We recommend that Toyota must have to: • Make innovations rapidly • Improve the design • Manufacture cars according to fashion and according to needs of buyers. • Keep in mind conditions of road while manufacturing. • Try to make less fuel consuming cars so that people will remain stuck with Toyota. • Reduce cost so that lower class can also afford it.
