The latest @OECD data show wide differences within the informal economy, alongside major gaps in protection and exposure to global changes. Low-, middle- and high-paid informal workers coexist, with very different capacities and vulnerabilities.

[OECD Development @OECDdev]

Informal employment is often associated with low pay and insecurity, but the picture is more complex. In countries analysed in a new @OECD report, 81% of workers living in poor households are informal, yet 16% of informal workers are in high-paid jobs.
