Tackling in-work poverty Work can – and should be – a reliable route out of poverty. But one in eight workers are living in poverty, and with the cost of living rising, a percentage of your workforce cold be struggling to cope. To help, we have teamed up with the Joseph Rowntree Foundation to raise awareness of in-work poverty and support employers in helping workers to achieve a decent standard of living. Find out more on our In-Work Poverty Hub. One million chances for young people As part of our One Million Chances campaign – which aims to create a million work and training opportunities for young people – we are seeking case studies of young employees (aged 18-24) who have successfully progressed within an organisation. These case studies will form a series of blogs that highlight the advantages of recruiting and retaining young talent, and shine a light on exemplary employers who are committed to developing young workers.
