The Egyptian House of Representatives’ Manpower Committee is preparing to discuss oversight of child labor following a collision in 6th of October City that killed 10 people and injured 24. Among those involved were children on their way to work at a farm. MP Ehab Mansour said he would submit a request for a briefing to review the government’s measures, the number of labor inspectors, and how fully penalties are being enforced. These can include fines of up to 100,000 Egyptian pounds for each violation and the closure of a non-compliant employment agency. The law prohibits employing children under the age of 15. It allows vocational training from age 14 under certain conditions, limits children’s working hours to six per day, and prohibits them from working at night.
