After the children went to school

Article Abstract:

Child labor is not longer used in making soccer balls in Sialkot, Pakistan, and this has meant that costs have gone up which has affected sales for cheaper products. Transportation and other costs have risen since the work is carried out in a center rather than at home. Families have lost wages, including women's wages since they may not wish to leave their homes to work. Some children previously worked part-time at home as well as going to school, and this work has also been lost.
