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 study provides information allowing for an assessment of the representativeness of the actors involved in the European sectoral social dialogue committee for the Food and drink 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 Eurofound’s studies on representativeness is to identify the relevant national and European social partner organisations in the field of industrial relations in the EU Member States.
В доклада се разглежда какво развитие претърпява доверието на гражданите в институциите — включително националните правителства, ЕС, науката и медиите — по време на пандемията от COVID-19 през 2020 г. и 2021 г. Анализира се ролята на медиите, по-специално връзката между използването на социалните медии и доверието, и въздействието на невярната информация (неточна или подвеждаща информация) и дезинформацията (преднамерено заблуждаваща информация) по време на кризата.
Качеството на институциите е ключов фактор за постигане на възходящо икономическо и социално сближаване в ЕС, като играе основна роля за растежа на икономиката, привличането на чуждестранни инвестиции, осигуряването на изпълнението на политиките и реформите и успешния достъп до фондовете на ЕС. Пригодността за целите на публичните институции е особено актуална в настоящия момент във връзка с изпълнението на програмата Next Generation EU, тъй като лошото качество на институциите може да попречи на достъпа до средства и да подкопае ефективността на самата програма.
The EU Presidency of Czechia organised a high-level conference in October 2022 on ‘Tackling energy poverty: EU approach & sharing best practices’. The event aimed to bring different actors together in order to strengthen the dialogue on possible solutions on how to further tackle energy poverty in the EU. This background paper, prepared at the request of the Czech Presidency, aims to contribute to the debate.
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 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 report describes trends in social and economic discontent across the EU between 2002 and 2020, highlighting in particular the turbulent times brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. The report explores the evolution of social cohesion and its impact on economic and social discontent. It assesses the relationship between social cohesion and discontent during the pandemic, allowing for a comparison of the situation as it stands in 2023. The focus of the report is on regions where social cohesion is low, where a contrast is drawn with regions where social cohesion is much higher.
This report analyses the working conditions and job quality of different types of self-employed workers. Drawing on data from the European Working Conditions Survey, it looks into policies in Member States aimed at addressing the challenges and opportunities associated with specific types of self-employment.
This study provides information allowing for an assessment of the representativeness of the actors involved in the European sectoral social dialogue committee for the chemical 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 chemical sector in the EU Member States.
The focus of this report is on the role that human capital plays in determining inequalities across the EU, as well as within Member States. Using Cedefop’s work in this area, the report provides a comparative analysis of national trends in education and lifelong learning, including differences between educational groups in terms of income, living conditions and health.
The report maps trends in income inequality and examines the situation of the middle classes in the EU during 2020, the year most associated with the COVID-19 lockdowns. It charts developments in the size and composition of middle-class households across countries, identifies those that suffered disproportionately in 2020. Taking a longer lens, the report describes the evolution of income inequalities over the last 15 years, comparing the Great Recession (2007–2009) with the COVID-19 pandemic, and outlines the trends both between and within Member States.
This report explores the implications of the right of all EU citizens to live independently.

It maps the various measures taken by EU Member States to foster independent living and autonomy. The report also includes policy pointers to support future decision-makers and provides a review of lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic.
