Understanding child labor in Myanmar

This research study is intended to stimulate a broader discussion on the cause and consequences of child labour in agricultural sub-sectors in Myanmar. As one of the few systematic investigations into children working in agricultural sub-sectors, evidence will inform policy and programmatic strategy. On the whole this research report: • Collates and analyses new qualitative and quantitative data on children working in Myanmar’s agricultural sector, specifically through the documentation of three sub- sectors – Inland Fisheries, Beans and Pulses and Sugarcane: • Documents common working arrangements and types activities carried out by child workers in the three sub-sectors; • Defines and categorizes various types of child labour and identifies common forms of “hazardous” child labour in the three agricultural sub-sectors: • Investigates the relationship between various social phenomena and the likelihood of a child to be involved in child labour, specifically household debt and access or propensity for schooling; • Recommends programming and legislative activities aimed at reducing the harmful affects of child labour in agriculture.

Employers in the formal sector in Myanmar actively discriminate on the basis of gender, age and education levels. Most employers prefer hiring young unmarried women. Participation in the labor force declines significantly after the age of 25. Women are generally expected to stay home to do reproductive and household work for the family. This study examines the internal and external factors that play a role in limiting women’s participation in the labor market in Myanmar. Direct quotes from interviewees provide a glimpse of the realities of being a working woman in Myanmar

With the general elections of November 2010, state rule in Myanmar entered a process widely seen as a transition-if stalled-to democracy and rule of law. Such transition narratives have posited normative rule of law and arbitrary rule outside law as opposing logics, and opposing practices. A similar dichotomy is found in studies of labour informalisation in the global South, where informal labour is understood as antithetical to legally protected employment. Arguing otherwise, this article employs interview and ethnographic data to pursue an anthropology of state formation as a means of reading formality and informality as complementary, rather than conflicting, logics of state practice. Drawing on Gavin Smith's notion of selective hegemony, I hold that state actors in Myanmar have pursued varied projects of rule over a heterogeneous landscape of labour relations. In this respect, rule of law is always selective, and informality exhibits not so much an absence of state rule as an indirect modality of rule.

This article studies the case of a workers' strike in Myanmar's ready-made garment sector to illustrate how differently-situated actors have engaged at multiple scales to influence emerging forms of labour regulation in the country. The analysis is drawn out through the historicization of domestic regulatory transformation. As a hegemonic project targeting industrial peace for purposes of capital accumulation, Myanmar's labour regime has been shaped by various actors outside of government circles, including International Labour Organization (ILO) personnel, Myanmar trade unionists, foreign governments, transnational corporations, domestic capitalists and Myanmar workers. Proposing a multi-scalar reading of labour regime transformation attentive to constitutive processes of contestation, the study analyses ways in which varied, and at times unofficial, relations coalesce to shape labour regulation.

During the 1820s and 1830s, the labor force participation rate for children aged 5 to 9 in mining, factory work, and high-wage agricultural work rose.

Contrastingly, on the opposite end of the spectrum, countries with child labour force participation rates between 1 and 5 per cent have much lower growth rates. In this regard, we calculate the growth rate required to reach the target within 30 years, by 2029. The computed growth rates range from 2 to 15 per cent.

Conclusion I have here aimed to show two things. First, that child labor in Myanmar is an injustice, because the children involved in the practice suffer a significant deficit of capabilities to perform basic human functions because of it. And second, that although this problem is a complicated one, it is not insolvable.
