Working
Out of Poverty: A study of the low-paid and the ‘working poor’
The rights to work and earn a decent living
are timeless demands of the labour movement and basic characteristics
of a fair society. However, almost six in ten poor households
in the UK (57 per cent) have someone at work, up ten percentage
points on a decade ago, according to new analysis presented
in this report. For too many families, moving into work has
not meant moving out of poverty.
