Abstract
This chapter examines the challenges facing OECD member countries in their drive to upgrade the skills of those workers who have come to be described as “the working poor”. It argues that the attempt to move from “welfare-to-work” to “welfare-in-work” policies must incorporate spatial considerations to ensure that efforts are directed at those workers and companies that need it most.
