The second part is correct
Both parts of the statement are incorrect.
Both parts of the statement are correct.
SOLUTION
Solution : B
The first part of the statement is incorrect, but the second part is true. Being out of work is not necessarily the same as being poor, because savings, or family support can, for instance, provide a financial cushion during a short period of work. Over time, unemployment causes these resources to be used up. However, even a long period out of work may not result in poverty where members of a household, other than the household head, are earning.

In relative poverty, you are poor relative to a group of people who may be earning more than you, when you are in unemployment.
