A survey of 3600 households has found a third have not recovered their pre-pandemic income levels, and 11 percent are still on severely reduced incomes.
Two surveys were carried out by the Commission for Financial Capability, one in April and another six months later in October. It also found working families in blue and "pink collar" occupations were among the hardest hit.
Jane Wrightson is the head of the Commission for Financial Capability.
