What can companies do to spark innovation in the workplace?

As we leave behind the lockdowns and business disruptions of COVID-19 and enter a ‘new normal’, it is time to talk about how workplaces might be transformed to drive innovation. Some may baulk at this suggestion, as we continue to grapple with the pandemic fallout, but crises have always been a cradle for change, creating a space to reflect on the things that are not working and to find solutions to them. Innovation is critical now as Europe faces into the transition to a green and digital economy. Businesses will have to develop processes, products and business models that are compatible with a climate-neutral future. They will have to digitalise across their operations and outputs, and do so fast to stay abreast of the competition.

Fremtidens arbejde: Hvad kan vi lære af kooperativer og sociale virksomheder?

Meget af diskussionen om arbejdsmarkedets fremtid fokuserer på globalisering og teknologi samt deres indvirkning på arbejdsmarkedet. Der er dog også en stigende interesse for de forretningsmodeller, som kooperativer og sociale virksomheder anvender, og hvordan de kan bidrage til en bedre fremtid for arbejde. Eurofounds forskning viser, at kooperativer og sociale virksomheder er robuste organisationer med interesse i at skabe gode job og bidrage positivt til arbejdsmarkedet.

The human factor in innovation

Companies are constantly competing for the next big thing in innovation – the next-generation 3D phone, the quantum computer, the virtual doctor. They fixate on technological breakthroughs and look for new business models. But innovation also needs systems, an organisational structure and people who work together. The human factor in innovation is often forgotten or neglected – the employees’ skills, their level of input, their autonomy in their jobs and the rewards they receive. Or do such factors really play any role in innovation?

Trust and dialogue are the secrets to business success in times of crisis

Europe has gone through significant economic change over the past decade. Businesses have had to manage the challenges posed by the financial crisis, globalisation and a rapidly changing labour market. Eurofound's new report Win-win arrangements: Innovative measures through social dialogue at company level has shown that new challenges do not always require radical new approaches , and that innovation can be found in the full implementation of well-established positive workplace practices.
