Event background
Visit to Lisbon, Portugal, 27-28 September 2007
The visit is part of Eurofound's series of national roadshows, aimed at facilitating closer collaboration with its stakeholders and showcasing Eurofound's recent research, data and recommendations. A seminar with special focus on the 4th European Working Conditions Survey (4th EWCS) will take place on 28 September.
Portuguese workers: overall satisfaction with work but not with pay
Workers in Portugal report overall satisfaction with their working conditions – on a par with workers in the EU27 Member States, the fourth European Working Conditions Survey reveals. However, while one in three Portuguese workers thinks they have good career prospects, a significantly lower proportion of Portuguese workers than the EU average feel they are well paid for the work they do. Also, two out of ten workers are afraid of losing their job in the coming six months, an indicator significantly higher than in the rest of Europe.
