Elimination of Child Labour to inadequate and unreliable data. The working conditions prevailing in these looms are highly inappropriate. Basic amenities like safe drinking water and toilet facilities are absent. The spatial distribution of non-formal schools in the carpet weaving belt is highly concentrated and comparatively less than the demand. Dropout rates and attendance records of the enrolled children in these NFE schools were related to provision of multiplicity of activities, especially mid day meals, stipend to children and quality of education provided by teachers. NGOs have been able to create a conducive atmosphere in these rural areas by enrolling large proportion of girls. Recommendation derived were related to : generation of employment opportunities; coordination to integrate government efforts with voluntary organizations; strengthening, monitoring and evaluation of NFE special schools, and lastly, the initiation of awareness generation programmes. 35 <strong>Research</strong> <strong>Abstracts</strong> on Child Labour, Labour and Women Labour 1998 - 2009
Exploitation Free the Children, Madhyamgram, West Bengal. (2001). Calcutta, the city of joy also has exploitation of children in the work field. Madhyamgra, West Bengal : FTC. ~25 p. Key Words : 1.CHILD LABOUR 2.EXPLOITATION 3.CASE STUDY 4.CHILD LABOUR 5.WEST BENGAL. Abstract : The study was undertaken in 3 wards of Calcutta Corporation 61,62 and 66 and was confined to 15 case studies in various industries in the unorganised sector. The industries covered were leather goods, motor parts shops, garages, hotels, rubber and PVC units, shoe making industry, tailoring, embroidery and zari units, etc. The industrial units did not have licences or address and employers employed children through contractors. The incentives for children were food and shelter, or very little wages which helped their parents or children to be financially independent. The average family size was seven. In the garage industry, the working hours were long 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. While doing jobs like welding and grinding, the child could sustain cuts and burns, and injuries on the body. Training period was extended so that no wages were paid. In hotels children worked all seven days, and more than half the workers were children. In the leather bag stitching industry, children were given no wages other than food and lodging and some festival allowances. During the peak season they work from 9 a.m to 4 a.m. the next morning, in cramped floor level sitting position, for no extra wages, which is exploitation. In the tailoring industry, the child worker got no cash, only food, lodging and clothes for working from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m, and they had a weekly off. In the rubber/PVC sector, children earned a decent amount for working from 9 a.m to 9 p.m., but rubber dust and the strong smell of rubber was inhaled, which has long term adverse effects on health. In the motor parts industry, child workers worked 12 hours a day continuously in an environment of heat and dust, which affected their health. Only 3 of the 17 child workers were literate, and 14 of them had migrated from Bihar. Legislation was not adequate and did not cover all hazardous industries, nor was its enforcement effective. Efforts are needed to increase family income, therefore it is suggested that cottage and small scale units should be promoted in rural areas. Licensing policies should be restricted with reservations where production of items produced by small scale and cottage industries should not be allowed in the large scale sector. 36 <strong>Research</strong> <strong>Abstracts</strong> on Child Labour, Labour and Women Labour 1998 - 2009
