- This report analyses data from Eurofound’s European Company Survey of 2009 to examine the incidence of performance-related pay (PRP) in European establishments and what determines it, with a specific focus on the role of employment relations. Larger establishments, those in foreign ownership, in the financial intermediation and commerce sectors, and those located in some central and eastern European countries are more likely to have a PRP scheme based on the performance of individuals.
- Report25 Ιούλιος 2012Around one third (34%) of workplaces with 10 or more employees have a trade union or works council body in place. Considerable variation exists between countries: the rate is above 55% in Denmark, Sweden and Finland but below 20% in countries such as Turkey, Greece and Portugal. Substantial variations also exist depending on industry sector and workplace size. Many of these characteristics are related to the presence or absence of a trade union or works council. Workplace representation is more prevalent in countries where national or sectoral bargaining dominates.

- Report27 Οκτώβριος 2011Non-standard employment and, more particularly, part-time work has been increasing worldwide for the past two decades. This trend has been especially strong in Europe, where the issue of different working time arrangements is an important part of the discussion among policymakers and social partners, and something which the European Union (EU) has promoted to increase flexibility for workers and employers. However, part-time work is spread very unevenly across Member States, reflecting differences in legislation, infrastructure and cultural conventions.

Την άνοιξη του 2009, το Ευρωπαϊκό Ίδρυμα για τη Βελτίωση των Συνθηκών Διαβιώσεως και Εργασίας (Eurofound) ξεκίνησε έρευνα ευρείας κλίμακας μεταξύ των εκπροσώπων διευθυντών και εργαζομένων. Η έρευνα για τις ευρωπαϊκές επιχειρήσεις του 2009 – Πρακτικές ευελιξίας και κοινωνικός διάλογος (European Company Survey - ECS) είναι η δεύτερη πανευρωπαϊκή έρευνα που πραγματοποιεί το Eurofound στις επιχειρήσεις. Η έρευνα για τις ευρωπαϊκές επιχειρήσεις καταγράφει τις στρατηγικές ευελιξίας των επιχειρήσεων και συνιστά μοναδική πηγή συγκριτικής πληροφόρησης για τον κοινωνικό διάλογο στον χώρο εργασίας. Από προηγούμενη έρευνα του Eurofound προέκυψε ότι οι επιχειρήσεις χρησιμοποιούν διάφορες πρακτικές ευελιξίας όχι μεμονωμένα, αλλά συνδυαστικά. Η έρευνα εξέτασε διάφορα μέτρα εσωτερικής και εξωτερικής ποσοτικής και ποιοτικής ευελιξίας.

This report presents some descriptive findings of Eurofound’s European Company Survey (ECS) 2009 on the structure of industrial relations and social dialogue as well as working time patterns in the commerce sector in Europe. Collective bargaining coverage and the degree of employee representation in the commerce sector is generally low compared with cross-sectoral national averages, but the deviation from the respective country average is much higher in countries with a low general coverage rate. Trade union membership is also lower in the commerce sector.
