The paper offers an analysis of future prospects of poor working persons. It pays attention to transitions from in-work poverty, focusing, in particular, on the probability of remaining at work and move above the poverty line. The analysis brings new insights into the situation in the countries in Central Europe, expanding limited knowledge on this subject. It shows that they differ in several aspects of in-work poverty and its dynamics, including the mobility of working poor as well as presence of their various trajectories. For example, while Poland stands out as the country offering most limited chances for "positive" mobility from working poverty, Hungary represents the most "open" regime, where working poor's future prospects seem to be more favorable. Findings from the empirical analysis covers the period 2012–2019, based on the pooled longitudinal dataset from the European Survey on Income and Living Conditions (EU SILC)
