Socio-Economic
Problems
Socio-economic issues are factors
that have negative influence on an
individuals' economic activity
including: lack of education, cultural
and religious discrimination,
overpopulation, unemployment and
corruption.
socio-economic factors
Illiteracy-Illiteracy affects all areas of life. Those with low literacy skills are
far more likely to live in poverty, face health problems etc.
Child Labour- The term “child labour” is often defined as work that
deprives children of their childhood, their potential and their dignity, and
that is harmful to physical and mental development.
Other socio-economic problems are:
Occupational Diseases:An “occupational disease” is
any disease contracted primarily as a result of an exposure to risk
factors arising from work activity. “Work-related diseases” have
multiple causes, where factors in the work environment may play a
role, together with other risk factors, in the development of
such diseases.
Aged Population: The aged population is currently at its highest
level in human history. The UN predicts the rate of population
ageing in the 21st century will exceed that of the previous century.
The number of people aged 60 years and over has tripled since 1950
and reached 600 million in 2000 and surpassed 700 million in 2006.
Juvenile Delinquency: Juvenile Delinquency is the involvement of
a kid who is between the age of 10 and 17 in illegal activity or
behaviour. Juvenile delinquency is also known as
“juvenile offending,” and each state has a separate legal system in
place to deal with juveniles who break the law.
