This study shows that more than fifty percent respondents are literate and only 10 percent children are getting secondary education. This clearly shows that those children who are working in micro bus have low level of education Most of the child laborers leave home due to family poverty and influenced by friends.They arrive in Kathmandu with relatives and friends but living with driver and sleeping on the floor. In addition, about 78 percent children reported that they are working 14-17 hours per day but their monthly salary is R.s 1000-6000 only. This shows that they are given less salary compared to their long working hours. This study also explores their level of satisfaction with their current job. About 51 percent of them are satisfied with their current job while about 49 percent are dissatisfied.Among the total who are dissatisfied more than 60 percent are dissatisfied due to overburden of work.
