The understanding of the distribution of social risks according to social classes can ensure more targeted social investment policies. This article aims to analyze the distribution of social risks according to the social classes in the three Baltic States of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. The micro data used in this analysis are collected from the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) data base of 2015 covering the three Baltic States: Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. The findings of this analysis revealed that in many cases, the distribution of social risks is related to social class. However, the findings suggest there is a higher probability of certain social risks among members of the lower middle class than those who are employed in lower class elementary (basic skills) occupations.

了解根据社会阶层划分的社会风险分布可以确保制定更有针对性的社会投资政策。本文旨在根据爱沙尼亚，拉脱维亚和立陶宛这三个波罗的海国家的社会类别来分析社会风险的分布。此分析中使用的微观数据来自2015年欧洲联盟收入和生活状况统计（EU-SILC）数据库，涵盖三个波罗的海国家：立陶宛，拉脱维亚和爱沙尼亚。分析的结果表明，在许多情况下，社会风险的分布与社会阶层有关。但是，研究结果表明，与从事低层基础（基本技能）职业的人相比，中下层社会的成员存在某些社会风险的可能性更高。
