Stop! Child Labour in Kenya, the 2000s Kenyan poster discouraging child labor within the country, and featuring art of a child washing a floor. Note that this poster was distributed by the African Network for the Prevention and Protection Against Child Abuse and Neglect. According to the Kenyan Employment Act of 2007, a child is "a person who is below the age of eighteen years old." It goes on to protect children from the worst forms of child labor. However, it also states that from the age of thirteen children can be employed for "light work", but it does not properly define what light work is. This can lead to the exploitation of minors by their employers as it is the employers who dictate the terms of employment, what is safe for children to do, the amount they should earn and other deciding factors. According to the findings of the US Department of Labour, Kenyan children are especially vulnerable to commercial sexual exploitation as a result of Kenya failing to ratify the UN CRC Optional Protocol on the Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Child Pornography. It was also discovered that there is no "specific compulsory education age", which means that some parents do not take their child to school until they see fit to do so, which can lead to some children being held back for work purposes.
