Human Resource Management
Child labor refers to the practice of employing children in work that deprives them of their childhood, education, and potential, and is harmful to their physical and mental development. This phenomenon became widespread during the Industrial Revolution as factories and mines sought cheap labor, often exploiting vulnerable children who were seen as expendable. The harsh working conditions and long hours faced by child laborers highlighted the need for social reforms and labor laws to protect young workers.
