ABSTRACT
A cross-sectional study was undertaken to determine the health status of children engaged in carpet weaving factories of Jaipur City. Two hundred and ninety school going boys of similar socio-economic status served as controls. A higher prevalence of signs of nutritional deficiencies was observed in carpet weaving children. Analysis of the presenting complaints and the illness suffered in the past six months also revealed a significantly higher morbidity in these children. A statistically significant difference was also observed in anthropometric measurements of the two groups.
