1 Final Report Leadership Training for Women and Youth and Academic Strengthening for Out-ofschool Children Funded by an Emily Sandall Memorial Grant Awarded by the International Initiative to End Child Labor (IIECL) Background Information Child Labor data for El Salvador indicates that 10. 2% of children, mostly in rural areas, are working in the worst forms of child labor. This statistic breaks down into 13. 7% of boys and 6. 5% of girls between the ages of five and 14. Sectors having the largest numbers of children are agriculture with 51 percent and services with 35 percent. The majority of children in agriculture are boys, while girls dominate in the service sector as domestic servants in third-party homes, where they are at risk of sexual exploitation. Participating Organizations Co-partners of Campesinas (CoC) is a US based, 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, founded in 1997, that supports La Nueva Esperanza (New Hope), La Asociación de Mujeres Emprendedoras Santiago Apóstol

30 Business Economics • July 2000 The Political Economy of Child Labor and Its Impacts on International Business C hildren have worked for as long as families have needed all hands to pitch in. Beyond defining work as a means of survival, however, defining what work is appropriate for children and what (if anything) to do about inappropriate work involves more complex judgments—especially for firms doing business in the global economy. The International Labor Organization estimates that around the world 250 million children between the ages of five and fourteen work, about 120 million of them fulltime. 1 Some of these children work in factories and other workplaces in the formal economy, but the vast majority work in informal enterprises, agriculture and in homes. International firms are part of this economy not only if they hire children, but also if they buy goods or services from children or from companies that make such purchases. International business has come under increased

A CONTEXTUALIST APPROACH TO CHILD LABOUR TIMOTHY IVINS * The role of child labour has seen increased coverage in Western society in recent times. This media exposure has resulted in a drive for many multinational companies to implement universalist human resource policies regarding the use of child labour in their supply chain. This essay argues for the consideration of the needs of other stakeholders, namely child labourers in developing countries themselves, and therefore recommends a contextualist approach to the issue, outlining circumstances where the use of child labour is acceptable for multinational corporations. The International Labour Organization (ILO) estimates that in the global economy 211 million children between the ages of 5 and 14 work. 1 This stands in stark contrast to the belief of many Westerners that child labour is an abomination, much of which interrupts the physical and mental development of children. 2 Given the influence that pressure groups and consumer
