Previous issues of Communiqué
Preparations for the launch of the new European working conditions observatory have been gathering momentum in recent weeks. News updates from the various national correspondents have been published on a weekly basis on the Foundation’s website, tackling topics ranging from job autonomy to pace of work and flexible employment.
The first observatory seminar took place in Brussels on 11 and 12 December and focused on the issue of violence and harassment in the workplace. Further work will include detailed topic reports from the network of correspondents on pertinent areas of European interest such as part-time work and the ageing workforce.
The official launch of the observatory, which will be an integral tool in the Foundation’s monitoring strategy, will take place in February 2004.
