in 为介词,因此后面可跟名词或动名词,即: result in sth./doing sth.
e.g.
Failure will result in frustration.
失败会导致挫败心理。
His laziness resulted in failing in the exam .
result from 是由……造成, 其用法也是如此.
His failure in the exam resulted from his laziness .

result in是导致的意思，后面跟动名词，也就是后面跟名词或是ing形势的名词，一般不会用doing表动作这种用法。
force这里是强迫和促使的意思，建议你按照考官的用法记。

Result in 后面是可以+doing 形式的，但是它表示的是Make sth. Happen 是一种必然的结果
您可以说The policy resulted in many elderly people suffering hardship .

个人觉的语法没有问题，只是原句may result in living slums 中文: 也许会导致....,言外之意也可能不会，但实际上这种没学历，只能做底薪工作会迫使他们住宿条件不好，单纯的因果关系没办法表述这种迫使感。其实主要还是意思之间是不是更好的衔接，修改后用force 读起来舒服很多。

在doing前面加个their不就可以了。

动名词可以表示普遍的抽象概念。你的句子存在逻辑上的不妥，即动名词的逻辑主语不明。他们找不到体面的工作不会导致别人住贫民窟只会导致他们自己住贫民窟。所以应该用动名词的复合结构即在动名词前面加上their。
which may result in their living in slums.
结论，result in 后面可以跟动名词，但需注意逻辑关系。如
Competition can be healthy, but if it is pushed too far it can result in bullying
竞争可以是良性的，但如果太过火，就可能造成以强凌弱。
Compulsion will never result in convincing them.

强迫永远不会使他们信服。
