12 June 2018. World Day Against Child Labor.

World Day Against Child Labor.

  • Worldwide 218 million children between 5 and 17 years are in employment.
    Among them, 152 million are victims of child labour; almost half of them, 73 million, work in hazardous child labour.
  • In absolute terms, almost half of child labour (72.1 million) is to be found in Africa; 62.1 million in the Asia and the Pacific; 10.7 million in the Americas; 1.2 million in the Arab States and 5.5 million in Europe and Central Asia.
  • In terms of prevalence, 1 in 5 children in Africa (19.6 %) are in child labour, whilst prevalence in other regions is between 3 % and 7 %: 2.9 % in the Arab States (1 in 35 children); 4.1 % in Europe and Central Asia (1 in 25); 5.3 % in the Americas (1 in 19) and 7.4 % in Asia and the Pacific region (1 in 14).
  • Almost half of all 152 million children victims of child labour are aged 5-11 years.
    42 million (28 %) are 12-14 years old; and 37 million (24 %) are 15-17 years old.
  • Hazardous child labour is most prevalent among the 15-17 years old. Nevertheless up to a fourth of all hazardous child labour (19 million) is done by children less than 12 years old.
  • Among 152 million children in child labour, 88 million are boys and 64 million are girls.
  • 58 % of all children in child labour and 62 % of all children in hazardous work are boys. Boys appear to face a greater risk of child labour than girls, but this may also be a reflection of an under-reporting of girls’ work, particularly in domestic child labour.
  • Child labour is concentrated primarily in agriculture (71 %), which includes fishing, forestry, livestock herding and aquaculture, and comprises both subsistence and commercial farming; 17 % in Services; and 12 % in the Industrial sector, including mining.

12 Juin 2018. Journée Mondiale contre le travail des enfants.  

Journée Mondiale contre le travail des enfants.  

  • 218 millions d’enfants entre 5 et 17 ans sont occupés économiquement dans le monde.
    Parmi eux, 152 millions sont astreints au travail des enfants et près de la moitié, 73 millions, accomplissent des travaux dangereux.
  • En chiffres absolus, près de la moitié du travail des enfants (72 millions) se trouve en Afrique; 62 millions dans la région Asie et Pacifique; 10,7 millions dans les Amériques; 1,1 million dans les Etats arabes et 5,5 millions en Europe et Asie centrale.
  • En termes de prévalence, 1 enfant sur 5 en Afrique (19,6 %) est astreint au travail des enfants, alors que la prévalence dans d’autres régions se situe entre 3 % et 7 %: 2,9 % dans les Etats arabes (1 enfant sur 35); 4,1 % dans la région Europe et Asie centrale (1 sur 25); 5,3 % dans les Amériques (1 sur 19) et 7,4 % (1 sur 14) dans la région Asie et Pacifique.
  • Sur l’ensemble des 152 millions d’enfants astreints au travail des enfants, près de la moitié ont entre 5 et 11 ans.
    42 millions (28 %) ont entre 12 et 14 ans; et 37 millions (24%) ont entre 15 et 17 ans.
  • La prévalence du travail dangereux des enfants est la plus marquée chez les 15-17 ans. Néanmoins, jusqu’à un quart du travail dangereux des enfants (19 millions) est accompli par des enfants de moins de 12 ans.
  • Parmi les 152 millions d’enfants astreints au travail des enfants, 88 millions sont des garçons et 64 millions des filles.
  • Les garçons représentent 58 % de l’ensemble des enfants astreints au travail des enfants et 62 % de tous les enfants accomplissant des travaux dangereux. Les garçons semblent être exposés à un plus grand risque de travail des enfants que les filles, mais cela est peut-être en partie dû à une sous-déclaration du travail des filles, en particulier dans les tâches domestiques.
  • Le travail des enfants est principalement concentré dans l’agriculture (71 %), qui englobe la pêche, la sylviculture, l’élevage de bétail et l’aquaculture, et comprend à la fois l’agriculture de subsistance et l’exploitation commerciale; 17 % des enfants astreints au travail des enfants travaillent dans le secteur des services; et 12% dans le secteur industriel, y compris l’extraction minière.
