The estimates range for children working in tourism run from 13 to 19 million children under the age of 18 which counts for around 10-15% of the formal tourism labour market (Black, 1995). This paper is based on the findings from a research report called Child Labour and Tourism: How travel companies can reduce child labour in tourism destinations written by Emilie Hagedoorn in 2011.

This paper aims to share a summary of these findings and recommendations with other interested travel companies.
