Question 8

READ:

For 250 million children, today is a workday, not a school day. Children as young as five years old are part of the global workforce. In factories and in fields, children work up to 15 hours a day, seven days a week. Matches, rugs, soccer balls, leather goods, paper cups, toys, shoes, fireworks – all of these products are made by tiny hands. Child labor is one of the worst forms of exploitation. Child workers are deprived of schooling, beaten and sexually abused, and crippled by work-related illnesses and injuries. Children are sold to employers who pay impoverished families for the use of their children, often to young adulthood. In Brazil, the Solidarity Center is working with unions, government organizations, businesses, and community groups to promote worker rights, racial equality, and social justice. The Solidarity Center is fighting child labor worldwide. Thanks to Solidarity Center programs, more kids are staying in schools.
