Chihuahua legislative proposal to combat child labor

Overview

Legislators in the Chihuahua State Congress are reviewing a proposal from the National Action Party (PAN) to combat child labor exploitation. The initiative seeks to amend the General Law on the Rights of Girls, Boys, and Adolescents and the General Law of the National Public Security System.

If passed, the proposal would strictly prohibit the employment of anyone under 15. For adolescents between 15 and 18, the law would mandate that authorities ensure work does not jeopardize their health, safety, morality, or development. To enforce these rules, the proposal outlines special detection and rescue operations involving labor, security, migration, and child protection authorities. Federal and local labor inspectors would be granted the power to conduct periodic and surprise inspections in high-incidence sectors.
