Question

A visiting American executive finds that a foreign subsidiary in a poor nation has hired a 12-year-old girl to work on a factory floor, in violation of the company’s prohibition on child labor. He tells the local manager to replace the child and tell her to go back to school. The local manager tells the American executive that the child is an orphan with no other means of support, and she will probably become a street child if she is denied work. What should the American executive do?

Answer 1

Answer: A visiting American executive finds that a foreign subsidiary in a poor nation has hired a 12-year-old girl to work on a factory floor.The local manager tells the American executive that the child is an orphan with no other means of support. The best option will be for the American executive to call Social Services and for them to determine if the child must go to an orphanage.

Step-by-step explanation:

Social service agents must give guidance and advice for children in unfortunate situations. A local authority has a duty to accommodate a child in need if there is no one with legal responsibility for the child.

An orphanage or center for the reception of minors is an institution responsible for the care of minors, orphans or abandoned and may be financed by public or private capital.
