Originally published in 1973, the contributors to this book examine the whole spectrum of low pay and propose solutions to this social, economic and political problem which is as relevant now as when the book was first published. They examine who are the low paid, and whether low pay is reinforced by other inequalities. They discuss why some industries have a tradition of low pay and how it can be tackled.
