Inboekelinge child labour was instituted by Dutch-speaking settlers in Southern Africa during the 18th and 19th centuries. The word is derived from the Dutch verb inboeken (register; literally "in-book"), referring to the requirement of entering the names and details of the inboekeling (also spelled inboekseling), or apprentices, in the Landdros's register.
