Summary/Abstract: One of the indicators currently used in relation to labor market is a share of people living in households with very low work intensity. The size of the population living in low work intensity households is also being followed with a goal to reduce poverty and social exclusion under the EU 2020 Strategy. The socio-economic structure of an individual or a household (education, type of household, income and work status) and also the demographic structure (gender, birth region) have a significant impact on this indicator. The goal of this article is to describe and also to assess the influence of selected factors on the work intensity of households in Slovakia with the use of multiple correspondence maps. The analysis is based on the categorized data obtained from the EU-SILC 2015 Statistics on Income and Living Conditions. The SAS 9.3 statistical software is used for calculations.
