Abstract
El trabajo infantil es una actividad que limita el desarrollo integral de los niños, niñas y adolescentes partiendo del hecho de que forman parte de los grupos vulnerables. Por lo tanto, es fundamental considerar el conjunto de derechos que están siendo violentados. La OIT define a dicha actividad como: “Todo trabajo que priva a los niños de su niñez, su potencial y su dignidad, y que es perjudicial para su desarrollo físico y psicológico” (Organizacion Internacional del Trabajo, 2019) por ende el trabajo infantil afecta al derecho que tienen los niños, niñas y adolescentes a realizar actividades propias de su edad y que permitan y fomenten el desarrollo de su intelecto, potencialidades y capacidades. La razón de que exista el trabajo infantil surge por la falta de recursos económicos en los hogares, lo cual obliga a los niños, a buscar un sustento diario para de esta manera aportar en la economía de sus familias. Sin embargo, como se mencionó, el trabajo infantil obstaculiza el acceso a la educación, y sobre todo dificulta el desarrollo integral de los niños, especialmente en la ciudad de Ibarra. Por lo tanto, es considerado como un problema porque el trabajo infantil es una actividad ilegal que violenta derechos y limita el desarrollo integral de los niños. A pesar de existir leyes y tratados internacionales que garanticen estos derechos, se pudo observar la vulneración de dichos derechos.
Child labor is an activity that limits the comprehensive development of children and adolescents based on the fact that they are part of vulnerable groups. Therefore, it is essential to consider the set of rights that are being violated. The International Labor Organization defines said activity as All work that deprives children of their childhood, their potential and their dignity, and that is detrimental to their physical and psychological development therefore child labor affects the right of boys, girls and adolescents to carry out activities appropriate to their age and that allow and encourage the development of their intellect, potentialities and capacities. The reason for the existence of child labor arises from the lack of economic resources in the homes, which forces children to seek a daily livelihood in order to contribute to the economy of their families. However, as has been said, child labor hinders access to education, and above all hinders the comprehensive development of children, especially in the city of Ibarra. Therefore, it is considered a problem because child labor is an illegal activity that violates rights and limits the comprehensive development of children. Despite the existence of laws and international treaties that guarantee these rights, it has been possible to observe the violation of these rights.
