Multidimensional hazardous child labor database for Mexico using the Alkire-Foster methodology

Description

This dataset was constructed for the analysis of hazardous child labor in Mexico using a multidimensional measurement approach based on the Alkire-Foster methodology. The database includes demographic, socioeconomic, educational, and labor-related variables, as well as a multidimensional hazardous child labor indicator developed by integrating multiple deprivation dimensions associated with risky working conditions among adolescents. The dataset was processed and harmonized for econometric analysis, allowing the identification of hazardous labor conditions beyond traditional one-dimensional measures. The database was developed for academic and research purposes in labor economics, child labor, and social vulnerability studies, facilitating the analysis of intergenerational and socioeconomic determinants of hazardous child labor in Mexico.
