Internal Control Standards

To increase effectiveness and efficiency of operations, reliability of financial reporting and information and compliance with applicable laws and regulations, Eurofound utilises a framework of 16 control standards. Information on the standards is available here.

Evaluation

Eurofound is required to 'regularly carry out ex-ante and ex-post evaluations of programmes and activities', according to article 25 of the Financial Regulation (pdf, 297KB).
