  • Inadequate Social Security payments play an outsized role in shaping poverty and financial stress trends in Australia.
    By 2017, two-thirds (66%) of youngsters in families whose main source of income was Newstart (now JobSeeker Payment) were living in poverty, up from 25% in 1993.
    • Particular parent families have much advanced rates of poverty than couple families.

    • Modelling shows that increasing overall Social Security spending by up to twenty would yield strong benefits in reducing poverty and financial stress when targeted towards working age payments, reducing poverty rates for the recipients by up to 75%.
