Abstract
Trade unions are fighting child labour as defenders of the most oppressed. Trade unions also have an objective interest in combatting child labour. The presence of large numbers of children in the labour market undermines the trade unions' bargaining position and makes it difficult to fight unemployment among adults. This article examines mainly practical activities by trade unions, and argues that trade unions can give the most significant contribution to the struggle against child labour by focusing on methods that are typical for or even exclusive to the trade union movement, in particular negotiations and collective bargaining.
