The survey ‘Post-war trends in Social Security’ (supra note 6) points out that: ‘Reduced to its simplest expression, this Recommendation urges that the sphere of protection of income security systems should be progressively enlarged in order to assure, to every worker and his dependants, at least the means of subsistence in every common contingency which occasions the involuntary loss of the worker’s earnings or their insufficiency to meet the family’s necessities.’
