Early to Work

Abstract / Excerpt:

In Region XI, the Ground Breaking Program for Child Labor has been denominated "Early to Work" ostensibly to underscore the focus on Filipino children who are wage earners and in many instances bread winners in poverty-stricken households. Child labor is a widespread paradox in this country where the young proliferate in the streets and are active participants in the economic and labor sectors at a tender age. As in the pilot studies, this research consists of a two-part investigation beginning with a Rapid Appraisal survey and followed by a more in-depth, qualitative study. This report covers the findings of the Rapid Appraisal survey or "Early to Work, Part I".
