Summary/Abstract: Purpose: While the problem of poverty is still continuing, it is possible to encounter new types of poverty today. The main problem of the research is that individuals are exposed to poverty and live with the risk of social exclusion despite the act of working. The scarcity of research on working poverty in Turkey in the literature adds importance to the study. The aim of this study is to determine the statistical differentiation of social exclusion levels of working poor participants according to demographic variables. Method: The population of this study, which is based on quantitative research design, is the working poor individuals in Bingöl province. The research was conducted with the voluntary participation of 550 working poor individuals using criterion sampling. Results: It was determined that the social exclusion levels of the participants were high in general (2.79±0.45) and on the basis of sub-dimensions. Social exclusion levels of the working poor differ statistically according to gender, education, age, occupation, income, sector and monthly income variables (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Gender, education, age, occupation, income, sector and monthly income variables can decrease or increase the social exclusion levels of working poor individuals.
