Why are there differences between the goods on the Lists and information in the TDA report?
• If the Lists include child labor in the production of a good or product, this good or product is also included in the TDA report for that country. However, the TDA report covers 141 countries and territories, while DOLs research for the Lists focused on a smaller group of 77 countries. The Lists were developed pursuant to their respective procedural guidelines, while TDA reporting is intended to provide a comprehensive picture of child labor in a country; its context; and laws, regulations, and programs to address the issue.
