초록

본 연구는 근로빈곤층 장애인가구의 빈곤의 양상과 빈곤탈출 요인을 동태적 관점에서 분석하였으며, 장애인고용패널조사(1∼6차년도)를 분석자료로 사용하였다. 분석결과, 장애인가구의 근로빈곤율은 전체 근로빈곤율의 약 3배 정도 높은 수준이며, 장애인 근로빈곤층의 규모는 전체 장애인 빈곤층의 평균21.4%를 차지해 근로빈곤은 장애인 빈곤의 주요한 형태로 나타났다. 그리고 전체 인구의 단기간의 빈곤탈출확률은 60%를 넘어서는데 비해 근로빈곤층 장애인가구는 54.6%에 그쳐 빈곤탈피가 어려운 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 경제활동요인은 장애인가구의 근로빈곤의 탈출에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인이나, 취업은 반드시 빈곤의 탈출로 귀결되지 않으며, 근로시간, 종사상 지위 등의 취업의 질이 빈곤탈출에주요한 요인으로 나타났다. 이 같은 결과는 장애인 근로빈곤의 해소를 위해 장애인의 고용지속성 확보와 더 나은 일자리로의 상향이동 촉진, 장애친화적인 근무환경 조성 그리고 사회안전망 내실화가 필요하다는 점을 시사한다.

This study attempted to empirically investigate the determinants of poverty transition of the working poor with disabilities from a dynamic perspective.
Analyses were conducted on the data from Panel Survey of Employment for the Disabled(PSED, Year 1-6), included the households with a disabled head of household. The working poor were defined as the household of which income fell below 120% of the absolute poverty line among the households just described.
As results, The 6-year mean poverty rate for the working poor with disabilities included in the analysis was 31.4%, approximately three times of the poverty rate of the total population and the working poor with disabilities were found to have greater difficulty with poverty exit once having fell into poverty than all households living in poverty. And it was found that the economic activity factor was the key determinant of in-work poverty. In addition, employment of the working poor with disabilities did not lead straight to poverty exit, and the quality, rather than the status of, employment was the key determinant of poverty exit.
The implications of the findings of this study are that it is essential to increase decent jobs, expand the social safety net of the working poor with disabilities and establish poverty reduction measures for each class of the working poor with disabilities to exit from poverty.
