Child Labor

Hello, my name is Zack G. and I’m in Mr. Salvucci’s period six class. Child labor is not as prominent as in the past, but is still seen across the world. Child labor is simply the emploment of children that are under the legal minimum age. In the United States there have been laws passed to forbid child labor. In 1938 the Fair Labor Standards Act was passed and began the push for child labor the be banned not only on the United States but in he world. Although this act was passed child labor was still practiced across the globe.
Many things were done to enforce child labor to be illegal, but one of the most prominent things was in 1916 when the first federal child labor law was passed. This law enforced that children under a certain age could not work or move goods. Other laws were also passed by the federal government to forbid child labor during the twentieth century. These laws had a great affect on the world and succeeded for the most part.
