5.1.4. Structural and individual mobility

5.1.4.1. Structural

5.1.4.1.1. Structural mobility is a kind of vertical mobility. Structural mobility refers to mobility that is brought about by changes in stratification hierarchy itself. It is a vertical movement of a specific group, class or occupation relative to others in the stratification system. It is a type of forced mobility for it takes place because of the structural changes and not because of individual attempts. For example historical circumstances or labor market changes may lead to the rise of decline of an occupational group within the social hierarchy. An influx of immigrants may also alter class alignments -especially if the new arrivals are disproportionately highly skilled or unskilled.

5.1.4.2. Individual

5.1.4.2.1. Individual mobility is a micro view of social mobility. Individual characteristics such as race, ethnicity, gender, religion, level of education, skills, determination, occupation, place of residence and health determine individual mobility. Opportunity for individual mobility can be restricted by several factors. For example women, certain ethnic groups or disabled person, opportunities for upward mobility are limited.
