AI Summary
This report provides a comprehensive analysis of child labor within supply chains, exploring arguments both for and against its complete ban. It defines child labor, contrasting perspectives on its potential benefits (such as providing income for families) with the significant harms it inflicts, including health risks, hindered education, and exploitation. The report highlights the prevalence of child labor in lower tiers of global supply chains, particularly in sectors like agriculture and raw material extraction. It emphasizes the legal, ethical, and reputational reasons for banning child labor, referencing national laws, buyer expectations, and the hazardous nature of many child labor roles. The report concludes that while child labor should be banned, exceptions and careful monitoring are necessary in situations where children are essential family income providers, focusing on ensuring safe working conditions and limited hours to allow for education. Desklib provides access to this and other solved assignments for students.
