Although the Danish social partners have for many years sought to present
older workers as a vital resource for the labour market, describing them as
'the grey gold' (Det grå guld), new studies from the Confederation of Danish
Trade Unions (Landsorganisationen i Danmark, LO) and Danish Employers’
Confederation (Dansk Arbejdsgiverforening, DA) show that the older people are
when they become unemployed, the less is their likelihood of getting back
into employment. As many as 16.2% of people in the 53-57 age group who lost
their job before the end of 2000 were still unemployed two years later, while
the corresponding figure for the 30-39 age group was only 5.4%. While it
becomes increasingly difficult for all age groups to return to employment the
longer they are unemployed, the chance of finding a new job is much smaller
for peopled aged over 53 than for younger groups. Each time an unemployed
person aged 53 years or over celebrates his or her birthday, the risk of
ending up long-term unemployed increases by up to 50%. These figures come
from an LO report entitled /Focusing on employment/ (Øje på beskæftigelsen
[1]) which was published in May 2003 and are based on figures from the
Ministry of Employment.

EU Directive 96/71/EC concerning the posting of workers in the framework of
the provision of services [1] seeks to avoid 'social dumping' by ensuring
that a minimum set of rights is guaranteed for workers posted by their
employer to work in another country. The basic principle is that the working
conditions and pay in effect in a Member State should be applicable both to
workers from that State, and those from other EU countries posted to work
there. The Directive covers undertakings established in a Member State,
which, in the framework of the transnational provision of services, post
workers to the territory of another Member State.

legislation and collective bargaining on the pay and conditions of posted

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 EJM analyses shifts in the employment structure in the EU in terms of occupation and sector and gives a qualitative assessment of these shifts using various proxies of job quality – wages, skill-levels, etc.

Building on previous work by Eurofound, this report will investigate intergenerational dynamics over time. During the 2008 double-dip recession, worrying intergenerational divides appeared in many Member States, and while some of the economic and social impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is universal, early data suggests disparities across demographic cohorts. Eurofound will examine how different age groups may have been affected in terms of their health, labour market participation, quality of life and financial needs, both in the short term and in the long term.
Adequate, affordable housing has become a matter of great concern, with an alarming number of Europeans with low or lower household incomes unable to access any, especially in capital cities. Housing was a key factor in people’s experience of the COVID-19 pandemic: its quality and level of safety significantly affected how lockdowns and social distancing measures were experienced, with those who had no access to quality housing at higher risk of deteriorating living conditions and well-being.
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.
