DESCRIPTION: 12:30 - 13:30 // Leen Vandecasteele (University of Manchester & WZB Berlin)Marco Gießelmann (University of Cologne) Working poverty is on the increase and is acknowledged as a substantial welfare risk in most post-industrial societies (Andreß and Lohmann 2008). This paper investigates transitions to in-work poverty in Germany and Great Britain. Despite similar levels of overall in-work poverty, the life events associated with entry into in-work poverty are expected to differ according to the way this risk is managed and countered by the welfare system. The theoretical part of the paper outlines how the in-work poverty risk is mediated by both labour market institutional framework as well as its welfare system. Consequently, empirical analysis on the basis of the German Socio-Economic Panel and the British Household Panel will elaborate on the main patterns of in-work poverty and the triggers of in-work poverty entry. The main triggers for in-work poverty entry are sought in transitions from unemployment or inactivity, labour market transitions (into part-time, self-employed or temporary work as well as occupational downgrading) and changes in the household employment context.The findings suggest that labour market entrants suffer disproportionately from the risk of entering in-work poverty in Germany. In Great Britain, employment exits of the partner is a stronger in-work poverty trigger and labour market transitions such as downward mobility and job change occur more frequently.
