The most hazardous and worst forms of child labour are child prostitution and pornography, and forced or bonded labour.There are a good number of reasons for hazardous child labour, the major ones being poverty, deprivation created by natural calamities, lack of access to education, lack of primary and community schools, lack of awareness, and poor implementation of labour laws. Saidabd bus terminal of Dhaka city (the biggest bus terminal of Bangladesh), here big quantity of child labour is working to earnings.

Child labour in Bangladesh is a major problem. It is a great hindrance to development, as a large number of children are engaged in various types of economical activities instead of attending school. A child, between 5 and 17 years of age, who works for more than one hour per week, paid or unpaid, is called a child labourer. According to ILO, child labour is an activitiy conducted by a person below the age of 15, and when a child aged between 5 and 14 years works between 14 and 43 hours per week, paid or unpaid, it is called hazardous child labour.  Here we can see one child labor is working in service-oriented sector for income, at the age of times he would go to the school but his can’not does it.Education is the best tool for reducing child labour, so education must be ensured for working children, but not in the traditional form. It must be provided in pleasant ways, with stipend, food, and vocational training. Then chikd labour would be ultimately reducing.

Child labour is seen in the street more frequently in many countries of the world speacially in Bangladesh though goverment has not taken significant steps to slove this problem. In addition, NGOs and non governments organizations are not very much interested to create opportunities for the street child labour. The majority of street-involved children are engaged in various forms of informal income generation in order to contribute to the household economy or for personal survival. It has been argued that economic independence, and ability to contribute to the household, is an important psychological factor in street children’s resiliency, self-confidence and feelings of self-worth.as a result most of the street boy in Dhaka city have got involved in different types of crimes as criminal. They also do not get educational facility. As a result day by day crime is increasing in the country.

They always try to struggle to earned money. We see most of the child labour comes from different slums areas for doing their little jobs, likes factories, garments or for any services oriented works. Among them large number of child labour is working at difference hotels or restaurants to earned money.  As a result, they do not get  educational facilities and they also suffer the many problems. Therefore, we should be taking the steps to reduce the child labour from the world.
