Abstract
"This report uses longitudinal data from the Families and Children Study (FACS) to explore the impact of movements in and out of paid employment on the economic circumstances of families with children. It uses two indicators of economic circumstances: income poverty and living standards hardship. The latter is a measure combining information on the ability of families to afford various consumer durables and leisure items, quality of housing and the state of family finances. The report looks at the impact of moving into work for one and two years, and moving out of work, on these indicators. The circumstances of families who were receiving in-work tax credits are also examined, as far as the data allows." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
