This guide was developed by Adroit Associates in collaboration with the International Labour Organization and was generously supported by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan.

This guide's recommendations are derived from the Child Labour Rapid Assessment conducted in Afghanistan's Balkh province. It outlines foundational occupational safety and health standards for child workers and should be rigorously followed. Intended as training content, this guide can be employed in workshops or shared with SME proprietors. By doing so, we aim to improve the severe working conditions that many children confront in Afghanistan and globally.
