Zimbabwe: Plight of working children to be researched

A new labour survey is set to highlight the situation of working children in Zimbabwe. About 140 enumerators are currently engaged in a three-week National Labour Force Survey being conducted by the Central Statistical Office (CSO), with support from the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF). It is expected to cover more than 10,000 households in Zimbabwe's 10 provinces. The survey will not only deal with the employment situation of adults, but also of children.
