Working Poverty: Low Skills or Low Wages?

David J. Lyon

Challenge, 2018, vol. 61, issue 1, 42-55

Abstract: Are the working poor making low wages for lack of skills? Or is most of the low wage due to the noncompetitive power of employers? The author, a consultant on social policy, makes a strong case for the latter.
