The dawn of 2022 brought muted optimism to a Europe beginning to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic, and the progress of vaccination programmes worldwide brought hope. Government and EU support during the pandemic had kept unemployment at bay, averting the widescale collapse of businesses. In step with the EU’s plans for the year, Eurofound’s focus was firmly on a post-pandemic Europe: the recovery and the twin transition to a green and digital economy. All this changed with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the start of a war of aggression. The EU and its institutions were compelled to respond rapidly.
Europe faces a winter of uncertainty and potentially discontent. The cost of living is rising rapidly and the spectre of recession looms.
Economic concerns are affecting citizens’ trust in institutions. Research by Eurofound has indicated a decrease in trust in national institutions across the European Union – including in governments, healthcare systems and the police.
В настоящия доклад са представени изследванията на Eurofound относно работата от разстояние по време на пандемията от COVID-19 през 2020 г. и 2021 г. В доклада се разглеждат промените в честотата на работата от разстояние, условията на труд, с които се сблъскват служителите, работещи от дома си, и промените в нормативната уредба, разглеждаща въпроси, свързани с тази организация на работа. Констатациите разкриват бързо увеличаване на работата от разстояние вследствие от пандемията: през 2021 г.
Проучването „Живот, работа и COVID-19“, което Eurofound стартира за първи път в началото на 2020 г., има за цел да проследи широкообхватното въздействие на пандемията върху работата и живота на гражданите на ЕС. Петият кръг на проучването на Eurofound, проведено през пролетта на 2022 г., също хвърля светлина върху нова несигурна реалност, причинена от войната в Украйна, рекордно високата инфлация и рязкото покачване на разходите за живот. Европейската фондация за обучение (ETF) проведе пилотно проучване с по-кратка версия на въпросника в 10 съседни на Европейския съюз (ЕС) държави.
Eurofound’s European Restructuring Monitor database reveals the impact of the energy crisis on employment in the EU. Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, energy prices have hit record highs. The European Commission imposed sanctions and limitations on the import of oil and gas from Russia, which has reacted by reneging on supply commitments to many Member States. Compared to other countries, market disruption has been especially acute in the EU, given the bloc’s overdependence on Russian energy supply.
This study provides information allowing for an assessment of the representativeness of the actors involved in the European sectoral social dialogue committee for the electricity sector. Their relative representativeness legitimises their right to be consulted, their role and effective participation in the European sectoral social dialogue and their capacity to negotiate agreements.
В настоящия доклад се анализира ролята на социалния диалог и колективното договаряне за посрещане на предизвикателствата, пред които е изправено гражданското въздухоплаване по време на пандемията от COVID-19. Участието на социалните партньори във въведените мерки с цел смекчаване на отрицателните последици от пандемията варира в различните европейски държави. Социалният диалог и колективното договаряне имаха важна роля в повечето държави, докато в други ролята им беше по-ограничена.
В настоящия доклад се анализира ролята на социалния диалог и колективното договаряне за справяне с предизвикателствата, породени или изострени от пандемията от COVID-19 в болничния сектор. В него също така се анализира дали текущият социален диалог и процеси на колективно договаряне на национално равнище са приспособени да отговорят на тези нови предизвикателства. Проучването включва преглед на документни източници с цел контекстуализиране на структурните характеристики на болничния сектор и анализ на политическите инициативи за управление на кризата, предприети в ЕС-27 и Норвегия.
Настоящият доклад е изготвен в контекста на тригодишния пилотен проект (2021—2023 г.) „Ролята на минималната работна заплата за установяване на универсална гаранция за труда“, възложен на Eurofound от Европейската комисия. Във фокуса на доклада е модул 3 от проекта, в който се изследват минималните работни заплати и други форми на заплащане за самостоятелно заетите лица.
Строгите ограничения в областта на общественото здраве, въведени от правителствата през 2020 г. с цел контролиране на пандемията от COVID-19, рязко промениха трудовия живот и продължиха да го оформят през следващите две години. Между март и ноември 2021 г. бяха проведени над 70 000 събеседвания в 36 държави в рамките на Европейското проучване по телефон на условията на труд (EWCTS) — висококачествено проучване, основано на вероятностен анализ. Целта беше да се предостави подробна картина на трудовия живот на европейците през този необикновен период от време.
This series reports on the new forms of employment emerging across Europe that are driven by societal, economic and technological developments and are different from traditional standard or non-standard employment in a number of ways. This series explores what characterises these new employment forms and what implications they have for working conditions and the labour market.
The European Company Survey (ECS) is carried out every four to five years since its inception in 2004–2005, with the latest edition in 2019. The survey is designed to provide information on workplace practices to develop and evaluate socioeconomic policy in the EU. It covers issues around work organisation, working time arrangements and work–life balance, flexibility, workplace innovation, employee involvement, human resource management, social dialogue, and most recently also skills use, skills strategies and digitalisation.
The European Quality of Life Survey (EQLS) is carried out every four to five years since its inception in 2003, with the latest edition in 2016. It examines both the objective circumstances of people's lives and how they feel about those circumstances and their lives in general. It covers issues around employment, income, education, housing, family, health and work–life balance. It also looks at subjective topics, such as people's levels of happiness and life satisfaction, and perceptions of the quality of society.
This series brings together publications and other outputs of the European Jobs Monitor (EJM), which tracks structural change in European labour markets.

The use of artificial intelligence, advanced robotics and the Internet of Things technologies in the workplace can bring about fundamental changes in work organisation and working conditions. This report analyses the ethical and human implications of the use of these technologies at work by drawing on qualitative interviews with policy stakeholders, input from the Network of Eurofound Correspondents and Delphi expert surveys, and case studies.
This study provides information allowing for an assessment of the representativeness of the actors involved in the European sectoral social dialogue committee for the professional football sector. Their relative representativeness legitimises their right to be consulted, their role and effective participation in the European sectoral social dialogue and their capacity to negotiate agreements. The aim of this Eurofound’s study on representativeness is to identify the relevant national and European social partner organisations in the professional football sector in the EU Member States.
This study provides information allowing for an assessment of the representativeness of the actors involved in European sectoral social dialogue taking place at cross-sectoral level. Their relative representativeness legitimises their right to be consulted, their role and effective participation in the European sectoral social dialogue and their capacity to negotiate agreements. The aim of this Eurofound’s study on representativeness is to identify the relevant national and European social partner organisations at cross-sectoral level in the EU Member States.
