Growing concern over child labor in Mexico
ENTI reveals that, despite a slight overall decline, millions of children remain exposed to hazardous work or inappropriate domestic labor, particularly in states such as Guerrero and Chiapas. The analysis highlights that most of these children earn minimum wages or receive no compensation at all, underscoring the precarious nature of child labor. This report is crucial for open data because it quantifies the structural magnitude of the problem. By breaking down activities by sector and region, the information enables the design of public policies targeted at the most vulnerable areas. Transparency in these data facilitates monitoring and the efficient allocation of resources to eradicate child exploitation.
