| Annotation | The authors provide a critique of methods that have been used to derive measures of income risk, and draw attention to the importance of demographic factors as a source of income risk. They also propose new measures of the contribution to total income risk of demographic and labour market factors. Data from the British Household Survey provides empirical evidence to support their arguments. (RH). |
