Bulgaria's Economic and Social Council in April issued a statement describing measures implemented to tackle the informal economy and giving recommendations on further actions. A campaign to combat the informal economy was launched subsequently by the Bulgarian social partners, asking all stakeholders to demonstrate their intolerance of informal practices.

Bei dieser Ausgabe von Foundation Focus stehen Mobilität und Migration in der EU im Mittelpunkt. Es werden der politische Hintergrund und praktische Fragen mit Blick auf die Migration von Unionsbürgern zwischen EU-Mitgliedstaaten sowie die Migration aus Drittstaaten in die EU beleuchtet. In welchem Umfang besteht eine Arbeitskräftemobilität innerhalb der EU? Wie können die Grundrechte von Flüchtlingen und Migranten aus Ländern außerhalb der EU geschützt werden? Welche Auswirkungen hat die Mobilität innerhalb der EU auf die öffentlichen Dienstleistungen?
Migration is a major policy concern at national and European level. However, while Member States have put in place specific regulations to deal with certain aspects, the overall architecture of migration-related policies is perceived as a challenge. In recent months, the significant inflow of refugees has profoundly changed the situation in Europe.
Working time is one of the most controversial issues in Austrian labour relations. Employers want more flexibility while workers want fewer working hours. A new study of employees in the electrics and electronic industry identifies what types of employees would prefer to reduce their working hours and provides the first feedback on the use of the 'free time option’, which enables employees to choose a wage increase or equivalent free time.

How can working conditions be improved to make work more sustainable over the life course? This question has been the guiding principle for analysis of the 2015 European Working Conditions Survey data during the period of Eurofound’s work programme for 2017–2020. This flagship report brings together the different research strands from this work and gives a comprehensive answer to the question. It includes an analysis of trends in working conditions, examining whether these are the same for all workers or whether inequalities between different groups of workers are increasing.

Ensuring that all children have these resources is an EU priority; the European Commission is currently undertaking to recommend a Child Guarantee to address the situations of children in need. Service provision has been complicated by the COVID-19 outbreak, however, and the pandemic has put psychological and material strains on families.
