Virtual Visit to Slovenia - First findings from the European Working Conditions Survey 2024 - key areas pertinent to Slovenia

This event takes place in the context of Eurofound’s ongoing efforts with key stakeholders at the national level to ensure widespread dissemination and dialogue on our research findings. 

Event overview

Slovenia does not conduct its own national survey on working conditions but uses the European Working Conditions Survey to monitor job quality and working life in Slovenia. This makes the findings of the European Working Conditions Survey 2024 (EWCS) particularly valuable for Slovenian stakeholders.

In 2024, the Slovenian Ministry of Labour, Family, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities increased the sample size of the EWCS from 1,000 to 1,300 interviews to obtain a more granular, national dataset. This step enhances the capacity to identify challenges and opportunities which will help to further improve working conditions for employees and self-employed men and women. Eurofound’s virtual visit will be a valuable opportunity to explore results for Slovenia and compare them with EU-wide averages and developments in other countries. 

Eurofound has been monitoring progress in working conditions across Europe for over 30 years through the EWCS. The survey provides a comprehensive picture of the everyday reality of men and women at work, assessing job quality, analysing risks and opportunities, thus providing both EU and national policymakers with the evidence required to design effective policies.

The latest findings shed light on issues around workers’ health and well-being, work-life balance, the impact of technology use at work, gender equality as well as the implications of an ageing workforce and the twin transitions.

This event takes place in collaboration with Eurofound’s Slovenian Board Members and with its national correspondent in Slovenia.
