“…Their idea is that there is a large number of macro-and micro-level working poverty factors identified in the literature, but that there are only three mechanisms that lead to working poverty, namely low earnings per unit of time, a belowaverage degree of labour force attachment at the household level and the number of children per working-age adult. The relative weight of each working poverty mechanism varies across welfare regimes (Crettaz and Bonoli, 2011). Their model, refined in Crettaz (2011a), is depicted in Figure 1.…”

While there is a growing awareness of the 're-emergence' of working poverty, this topic remains relatively under-researched. This article provides an encompassing review of the literature dealing with the situation in Europe, North America and the Antipodes, with a focus on the theoretical models found in this literature, the definitions used and the risk groups identified. The main conclusion is that most publications were not based on a specific theoretical model, which has led to a flurry of definitions; moreover, conclusions on certain risk groups are divergent. The end of the article focuses on what remains to be done, because there are good reasons to think that working poverty might become a more pressing problem in the near future, and social policy researchers will have to have good theoretical frameworks and robust evaluation strategies in the years to come.

“…Las variables independientes que se han introducido en el modelo se corresponden con los factores que las investigaciones anteriores han identificado como determinantes en la pobreza laboral (Cretazz 2011;Goerne 2010;Gutiérrez et al 2011). Por un lado, se ha observado el efecto de la edad, el sexo, la educación y el estado civil.…”

“…La dimensión de pobreza se mide desde una perspectiva monetaria y relativa y se han identificado como pobres a aquellos hogares cuya renta equivalente está por debajo del 60 % de la renta mediana equivalente. Sin embargo, no hay consenso claro en la literatura sobre cómo conceptualizar la dimensión del trabajo (Peñas-Casas y Latta 2004;Ponthieux 2010;Cretazz 2011). Los principales indicadores se diferencian por el grado de participación en el mercado laboral requerido para incluir a las personas en la categoría de trabajadoras y la selección de un indicador u otro influirá tanto en la determinación del tamaño del fenómeno de la pobreza laboral como en la identificación de sus causas (Peñas-Casas y Latta 2004; Ponthieux 2010).…”

ResumenLas relaciones entre el riesgo de pobreza y el empleo se han convertido en un problema de creciente interés en los últimos años. El grueso de la investigación disponible sobre este problema es de tipo transversal. El análisis diná-mico de la pobreza laboral es particularmente interesante para la respuesta de varias cuestiones: ¿es el empleo suficiente para evitar la pobreza? ¿Es la pobreza laboral una situación temporal o permanente? En este trabajo se analiza la dinámica de la pobreza de los trabajadores en España; con el objetivo de conocer si las caídas en la pobreza laboral se producen solo temporalmente, si las personas caen varias veces en esta situación o si, de lo contrario, la pobreza laboral se configura como un fenó-meno que produce atrapamiento y del cual es muy difícil salir. A su vez se pretende analizar los distintos perfiles de pobreza laboral en función de su duración. Palabras ClaveDesigualdad; Mercado de trabajo; Perspectiva dinámica. AbstractThe relationship between the risk of poverty and the participation in the labour market has gained major attention in last years. The majority of the research carried out in this field is from a cross-sectional perspective. The dynamic analysis of poverty is particularly interesting for answering several questions: is employment enough to avoid poverty? Is in-work poverty a temporal or a permanent state? In this article in-work poverty dynamics in Spain are analyzed with the objective of determining whether entries into in-work poverty are temporal, whether people fall several times in that situation or, on the contrary, whether in-work poverty can become in a permanent situation which is very difficult to leave. At the same time, the different duration profiles of in-work poverty are analyzed.

“…Some comparative in-work poverty studies (Airio, 2008;Brady et al, 2010;Crettaz, 2011;Crettaz and Bonoli, 2010b;O'Connor and Smeeding, 1996) use the Luxemburg Income Study (LIS). The LIS currently covers 30 countries in Europe, America, Asia and Oceania and provides data from the early 1980s.…”
