This guide was developed by CLEAR II to support the training initiatives that the Ministry of Labor and Labor Development (el Ministerio de Trabajo y Desarrollo Laboral, MITRADEL) has in order to develop a training program on specific inspection capacities for child labor, adapted to the needs identified by these inspectors.
