Abstract
Children are the next generation of the nation who have the right to grow and develop. Their
primary needs are to play and learn. In fact, some of them are forced to work to support their
family needs. This study aims to provide a framework for the provision of legal protection for
child labor in marginal communities through the identification of causal factors and the risks of
child labor and the tracking of child labor protection rules. This is a legal research using socio
legal approach. The results of this research are first, the existence of poverty factor, social culture,
education, urbanization and change of production process causing child labor in marginal
communities.The risk of child labor is the disruption of physical, emotional and social development
of children. Secondly, legally there is already a legal instrument that provides legal protection for
children who have worked in the 1945 Constitution jo. Law No. 4/1979 jo. Act 39/1999 jo. Act 1/
2000, jo. Law 23/2002 Jo. Law 13/2003, jo. Presidential Decree No. 59/2002. The legal means of
protection for child labor in marginal communities has not been effective because it is influenced
by factors to support family needs. Third, the framework of providing legal protection for child
labor includes four phases of mapping, planning, implementation and monitoring of the legal
protection of child labor.The framework for the provision of legal protection for child labor in
marginal communities is expected to be an alternative solution to the reduction and elimination of
the number of child labor .The conclusion drawn from this research is that the rule of law for the
protection of child labor in marginal communities requires the active participation from the
community to participate in the planning of the protective movement of child labor in the form of
concrete actions to reduce and eliminate the number of child labor in the surrounding environment
to zero child labor by the use of the strategy to return children to school.
