| Annotation | The Resolution Foundation defines low earners to include all those with belowü median income (from all sources) who are not dependent on state support. This report considers the low earning group to comprise those households in income deciles 3, 4 and 5; that is, with equivalised gross annual income between £13,500 and £25,800. Around 7.2 million households fall into this category in the UK, accounting for around 14 million adults. The audit attempts to present a broad description of some of the pressures faced by those who are disadvantaged by the mixed economy, an experience which has been heightened by the recession. This update considers low earners' household finances during an economic downturn. Appendices provide economic indicators, a range of low earner data, the various technical definitions of low earners used, and brief details of a low earner focus group commissioned by the Foundation in June 2009.
