Child Labor Deterrence Act

The Child Labor Deterrence Act is a law aimed at preventing the importation of goods made by children under certain age limits, especially in hazardous conditions. It seeks to protect children from exploitation and ensure that products brought into the U.S. are not made by those who are forced to work or are too young. By prohibiting these imports, the Act encourages ethical labor practices globally and raises awareness about the importance of children's rights and welfare in the workforce. Essentially, it’s about promoting fair treatment and safety for children across the world.
