Explain the various occupational hazards and risks among child labour and women workers.

Occupational health and safety (OHS) refers to the policies, practices, and measures implemented to ensure the well-being of workers in their workplace. It aims to prevent work-related injuries, diseases, and fatalities. However, certain groups of workers, such as child laborers and women workers, face unique and significant occupational hazards and risks. These risks are often exacerbated by their vulnerabilities, such as limited access to education, poverty, gender inequalities, and lack of proper legal protection. Understanding the various hazards faced by these groups is crucial for creating safer working environments and improving their quality of life.

### Occupational Hazards Faced by Child Laborers

Child labor is a global issue, with millions of children working in various industries, including agriculture, manufacturing, mining, and domestic labor. Children are more vulnerable to occupational hazards due to their physical and psychological development stages, lack of experience, and limited understanding of safety practices.

1. Physical Injuries:
   Child laborers are particularly prone to physical injuries because of the nature of their work. In industries like agriculture, construction, and manufacturing, children are exposed to sharp tools, heavy machinery, and dangerous chemicals. In agriculture, they may operate harmful equipment or work with hazardous pesticides without protective gear, leading to cuts, burns, and other physical injuries. The risk of accidents is higher due to their smaller stature and physical strength, which makes it difficult for them to handle tools or machinery designed for adults.

2. Exposure to Toxic Substances:
   Children working in agriculture are frequently exposed to toxic chemicals like pesticides and fertilizers. These substances can cause acute poisoning or long-term health problems, such as respiratory disorders, skin diseases, and even cancer. In mining, children may inhale toxic dust or come into contact with harmful minerals like asbestos, which can lead to chronic lung diseases or even lung cancer.
