Abstract: Abstract A long shadow has been cast over human history by child Labour, or the harmful employment of minors. Despite increased concerns brought on by the Industrial Revolution, significant progress has been made in legal efforts to stop this practice. The development of child Labour laws is examined in this essay, which highlights improvements in youth protection. But this is far from the end of the battle. I will carefully examine the lingering holes in these legal systems, such as poor implementation, unrestricted access to certain industries, and the alarming fact of dangerous child Labour. Examining how child Labour laws have changed over time, the study charts the path from early industrialization to contemporary globalization. In order to create international frameworks and conventions intended to end child Labour, it examines the critical role played by organizations like the International Labour Organization (ILO). Laws and policies that shield minors from child Labour have come a long way, but there are still many obstacles to overcome. The report highlights significant legal gaps, such as insufficient enforcement procedures, structural weaknesses in laws, and socioeconomic variables that sustain child Labour in particular areas. The intricacies of the domestic and informal Labour markets, where regulatory monitoring is frequently lacking, are also covered.
