Do you understand the concept of the working poor?

The working poor are individuals who are employed but still live below the poverty line.
They often work low-wage jobs that do not provide sufficient income to meet basic needs.
Many working poor individuals may hold multiple jobs to make ends meet.
They frequently lack access to benefits such as healthcare, retirement plans, and paid leave.
Economic fluctuations and rising living costs can exacerbate their financial struggles.
