Interclass vertical segregation refers to the separation of individuals based on their social class within a given profession or organization. This can manifest in different ways, such as unequal opportunities for career advancement, promotions, or access to higher paying positions based on one's socioeconomic background. This form of segregation can perpetuate social inequalities and limit the upward mobility of individuals from lower social classes.
