Working Hard or Hardly Working? Who are Canada’s Working Poor?
ABSTRACT Working poverty in Canada is shrouded in mystery and misconception due to the little attention given to this area in research and policy-making. We performed an analysis of working poverty in Canada by using data from the Canadian Income Survey and conducted a binomial logistic regression to discuss the general profile of the working poor and the determinants of working poverty. We found that the working poor have high rates of post-secondary education and worked full-time hours. Moreover, being an immigrant, a single-earner (e.g., unattached individual, lone-parent family, single-earning household), and being self-employed were determinants of working poverty.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Poverty is the first refereed journal to recognize the inequalities in our social, political, and economic structures, presenting progressing strategies that expand society"s increasingly narrow notions of poverty and inequality. The journal"s broad understanding of poverty—more inclusive than the traditional view—keeps the focus on people"s need for education, employment, safe and affordable housing, nutrition, and adequate medical care, and on interventions that range from direct practice to community organization to social policy analysis. The journal"s articles will increase your knowledge and awareness of oppressive forces such as racism, sexism, classism, and homophobia that contribute to the maintenance of poverty and inequality.
