As child labour has become an important global issue, there is a constant need for detailed and up-to-date statistics on working children. Statistics and surveys can help determine the extent and magnitude of the problem, identify the factors and reveal its consequences, and generate public awareness of the issue. Child labour surveys include data collected from diverse sources including national population consensus, secondary sources, household surveys and special child labour studies and surveys. Various statistical techniques used for sampling need separate treatment. This manual is concerned with sampling issues arising in the context of household-based child labour surveys. Many techniques discussed in the manual can be useful in the design of more specialized, targeted or sectoral surveys of child labour.
