The COVID-19 pandemic has spurred perhaps the largest expansion of social protection systems in seventy years. And yet people are calling for even more help from their governments. Drawing on 25 000 responses from 25 OECD countries, the 2020 Risks that Matter survey finds that people are worried about keeping their jobs, paying the bills, and staying healthy. Seven out of ten respondents say government should be doing more to ensure their economic security, and many are willing to pay more in taxes to support this. The perspectives offered by the Risks that Matter project offer important insights on how to expand and reform social protection as OECD countries slowly start to recover from the pandemic.
