Excerpt from The Employment of Children: Report of an Inquiry Conducted for the Scottish Council for Women's Trades; Compiled by Special Investigators
The conditions Of children's labour, which form the subject of the following reports, have been more or less under the consideration of the Scottish Council for Women's Trades for some time.
The Council have been led to undertake the present enquiry by the evidence brought before them Of the large number of boys and girls who, year after year, on leaving our national schools, are forced to take up the first unskilled work that offers regardless of whether it is such as is likely to provide them with an adequate wage in the future. It is Obvious that the large proportion of unskilled workers thus thrown regularly on the labour market constitutes a grave economic evil, alike to those personally affected and to the community at large.
