Working Conditions of Street Children in India

Most street children find themselves some work, even though they may not be steady and lose jobs regularly.

Many think of rag picking as a "job". A study in 1989 shows that 39.3% working children are paid inadequately, and 34% complain of being forced to overwork.

Many children are lured into bonded work or "work-camps" that they are unable to escape from, due to unscrupulous and cruel proprietors or middlemen.
