Globally speaking, there is no one single cause of child labor nor any single model adequately explain the complex phenomenon of child labor.

Nevertheless, some of the factors affecting child labor are identified as low income, The practice of indebting a family (part of repaying the debt involves a child becoming an indentured labor to the creditor party), big family size and fertility (household with more children end up providing less education for each child and may need to send children to work to help earn income to meet needs), household structure and migration, difficulty in easy access to qualitative schooling, and demand within a given society for cheap unskilled laborers. However, according to a study the most common cause behind child labor practices in Pakistan remains because of death or illness within adult member of the family.

What are the causes of child labour?

THE CAUSES ARE:International Labour Organisation (ILO) suggests poverty is the greatest single cause behind child labour. For impoverished households, income from a child's work is usually crucial for his or her own survival or for that of the household. Income from working children, even if small, may be between 25 to 40% of these household income. Other scholars such as Harsch on African child labour, and Edmonds and Pavcnik on global child labour have reached the same conclusion.Lack of meaningful alternatives, such as affordable schools and quality education, according to ILO, is another major factor driving children to harmful labour. Children work because they have nothing better to do. Many communities, particularly rural areas where between 60-70% of child labour is prevalent, do not possess adequate school facilities. Even when schools are sometimes available, they are too far away, difficult to reach, unaffordable or the quality of education is so poor that parents wonder if going to school is really worth it.
