The practice of paying children low wages for physically demanding work benefits the economic elite while forcing those in poverty to attempt to migrate to the United States.
Reports of child labor violations are on the rise, with migrants as young as 10 working dangerous jobs for brands like McDonald’s and Ford. Employers have faced little consequence and often claim ignorance. At the same time, there have been recent efforts in state legislatures to roll back worker protections for minors. #Labor #Children #Migrants #Work
