Pracovní a sociální regulace

Pracovní a sociální regulace zahrnuje právní rámec a základní sociální práva, která regulují pracovněprávní vztahy, politiku zaměstnanosti a sociální politiku v celé Evropě. Zahrnuje vnitrostátní, unijní a mezinárodní legislativu. Pracovní právo Unie má přímý nebo nepřímý dopad na normativní a funkční rámce individuálních a kolektivních systémů pracovního práva členských států ve vztahu vzájemného zasahování a interakce. Pracovní právo Unie je také stále více utvářeno dohodami, které strany dobrovolně uzavírají, a mechanismy měkkého zákonodárství. Reforma nebo modernizace pracovního práva je v současné době jednou z priorit v několika členských státech.

After #MeToo: Changes in sexual harassment policy at work

Sara Riso

The #MeToo movement, which began in 2017 with allegations of sexual harassment and assault in the entertainment industry, has brought significant attention to sexual harassment, particularly as it affects working women. The #MeToo movement has sparked a broader discussion about the prevalence of sexual misconduct at work and has driven legislative changes in several countries. Based on information collected from Eurofound’s Network of European Correspondents, this article reviews the various approaches to addressing sexual harassment in EU Member States and highlights recent policy changes.

Workplace bullying, harassment and cyberbullying: Are regulations and policies fit for purpose?

Sara Riso

Over the last decade, information and communication technologies have changed the way employees work and communicate with each other. While the digitalisation of work offers many benefits, widespread access to digital devices in working life has created new forms of antisocial behaviour. This report maps national regulatory instruments aimed at counteracting antisocial behaviours at work, particularly bullying and harassment. Legislative reviews indicate that in many Member States online forms of abuse are often viewed as extensions of the traditional form of face-to-face bullying or harassment rather than as a distinct phenomenon requiring separate regulation. Some countries have amended existing legislation to include cyberbullying and online harassment. This report reviews to what extent such online conduct is regulated in EU Member States and Norway. As regulatory change is generally prompted by a certain level of policy debate, the report also explores national-level debates and whether there is empirical evidence documenting the issue or that potentially indicate a rise in the phenomenon.

Work–life balance: Policy developments

Barbara De Micheli,

Alessandro Smilari

In recent years, work–life balance has become a central theme in labour policies across Europe. While EU Member States have adopted different approaches, the common aim is to promote a more inclusive working environment. A major driving force behind these policies was the Work–Life Balance Directive. Implemented in August 2022, the directive’s key provisions include a minimum of four months of parental leave per parent, ten days of paid paternity leave, five days of carer’s leave and provisions for flexible working arrangements. By 2023, many Member States had implemented the directive by introducing new policies or updating existing ones. While these policies show a commitment to improving workers' well-being and gender equality, they also face criticisms for their narrow focus on childcare and uneven promotion of fathers' roles. They often emphasise only certain aspects of personal life related to care duties. Policies that address diverse care needs and support holistic work–life balance are needed for a continually evolving workforce.
