Third party research (2006)
Research using data from Foundation Working Conditions surveys
The Foundation’s working conditions surveys have become a standard reference for researchers on quality of work issues, and the survey datasets have been used by many of the main national and international organisations with an interest in this area.
The following links provide a short selection of cases where the Foundation's survey data have been used in recent research by third parties:
