Child Labour: Psychological and Behavioral Challenges
Abstract
This chapter describes how the Child Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) Act of 1986 talks about hazardous units of employability and prohibits employers to employ children in them and regulate the employability of children in the non-hazardous units. Law has laid an emphasis on physical injury that effects the physiology of a child, but the “psychological injury” is left unexamined. Psychological injury can have disastrous impacts on the shape of the personality of a child. The chapter reviewed types of non-hazardous occupations where children are involved at work; methods involved; Ericson's developmental stages of children affected by child labour activities; assessing psychological effects; constitutional provisions; and psycho-social analysis. With an analysis of these factors, it is concluded that once a child gets employed he loses the freedom to spend his time by his own free will.
