Answer:

Child labor effect on economy

Child labor laws also impact the economy of a country. With the child labor laws in place, “sweatshop” style jobs significantly decrease. While children may be put to work at menial jobs that may not pay much and may require long hours, it is less likely that adults will accept these positions, particularly when the need for employment is less.
