The Child Labor Deterrence Act

The Child Labor Deterrence Act is proposed legislation aimed at preventing the employment of children in harmful or exploitative work. It seeks to establish strict guidelines and penalties for companies that hire underage workers, particularly in unsafe or illegal conditions. The goal is to protect children's health, education, and overall well-being by discouraging industries from using child labor and promoting fair labor practices. The act emphasizes enforcement and accountability to ensure that children are not exposed to labor that hinders their development or violates their rights.
