The phenomenon of child labor has spread throughout the countries of the world greatly, where there are many factors that push children to work, among them the social factor represented in poverty and the low standard of living, the educational factor, and it appears through the spread of illiteracy and families' ignorance of the importance of education for them and their children. The economic is reflected in the deterioration of the level of development, the spread of unemployment, and the factor of instability Where do we observe the effect of wars on children, where wars and economic crises cause displacement and migration that forces children to work, and there is the legal factor that shows the weakness of states in carrying out their responsibility to impose laws that prevent child labor And the punishment of those who violate it. Child labor affects the child wherever it hinders his psychological, emotional and physical development, as well as affects countries through their influence on society where an unbalanced society results in its formation, and the most important effect of the phenomenon is the economic dimension where the early integration of the child does not contribute to The labor market is to achieve positive results, but it is a losing investment on all levels.
