In a recent study for United Way, Commonwealth Corporation researchers found that helping people move from low-paying to living wage jobs requires long-term strategies for advancement. Employment and training programs for low-skilled, low-wage workers tend to be geared toward entry-level jobs and rarely provide support for advancement to sustainable employment.
