Survey of Activities of Young People in South Africa, Country Report 1999
South African children aged between 5 and 17 years are expected to
help the family and school by participating in both economic and
non-economic tasks. This is the case particularly in the deep rural
areas of the `former homelands' where there are few job opportunities
for adults, and where electricity and piped water are rare. For most
children, however, this type of work does not take up a large
proportion of their time.
