Befindet sich Europas psychische Gesundheit immer noch in einer Krise?

Die psychische Gesundheit in Europa steht an einem kritischen Scheideweg. Während sich einige Indikatoren seit der Pandemie verbessert haben, zeigt ein neuer Eurofound-Bericht besorgniserregende Trends, darunter einen alarmierenden Stopp des jahrzehntelangen Rückgangs der Selbstmordraten. In dieser Folge von Eurofound Talks spricht Mary McCaughey mit dem leitenden Forschungsleiter Hans Dubois über dieses komplexe Thema und hebt hervor, dass gefährdete Gruppen von schlechter psychischer Gesundheit unverhältnismäßig stark betroffen sind.

Regulating platform work in Europe: A work in progress

The platform economy is one of those moving targets, which, despite receiving increasing media and policy attention, has proven difficult to regulate. Given the heterogeneity of employment relationships, business models, types of platform work and cross-border issues, this is not surprising. Yet, in recent years, an increasing number of initiatives and court rulings across EU Member States have sought to address the employment rights and working conditions of platform workers.

We need to talk about AI

The advent of AI has far more consequences for how work is organised, performed and valued than any previous technological revolution. In order to make the most of this digital transformation we need inclusive and nuanced policy debates on its employment effects and how to future-proof policies: we need to talk about AI.

The pandemic aggravated labour shortages in some sectors; the problem is now emerging in others

Following the declines in employment rates and working hours across Europe in 2020, economies began to show signs of recovery during the first quarter of 2021. The gradual rekindling of economic activity has led to a surge in demand for workers and reawakened concerns over labour shortages. Difficulty filling vacancies was thought to be among the key factors holding back growth, competitiveness and service delivery in a number of sectors prior to the COVID-19 outbreak. Despite a temporary weakening in demand for labour during the pandemic, this was not the case in all sectors, with some seeing pre-existing shortages worsen.
