Définition

  • REFERRING TO A diverse and complex economic state, the term working poor encapsulates the experience of working individuals who, over a designated period of employment, persist in their inability to apply earned income to hoist themselves and dependent family members out of poverty. The definitions of working poverty are determined by the context and parameters of individual studies; however, the general consensus is that this emerging class was created by the socioeconomic circumstances it inherited from industrialism—a phenomenon that began in 17th-century Britain and spread to western Europe and North America in the 1800s.
