In 2020, about 152 million children, aged between 5 and 17, are working, often in appalling conditions. Unfortunately, the health crisis caused by COVID-19 only reinforces these inequalities and pushes more and more children into precarious conditions.\n<p>Although this does not fall within the scope of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.unionsyndicale.eu\">Union<\/a> Syndicale&#8217;s actions, we wish to denounce this situation by the means at our disposal and to raise awareness among our members and <a href=\"https:\/\/unionsyndicale.eu\/en\/about-us\/who-we-are\/\">our representatives<\/a>. It is through our efforts and our awareness that we can hope that the 21st century will finally mark the elimination of children labour and that the rights of all workers will be respected.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Would you like more information on this subject or would you like to support an organisation that fights against child labour?
