Gender equality in the EU: Priorities for EU strategy

It is important to underline that when referring to gender issues there is a risk of limiting the discussion, views and study exclusively to the situation of women and overlooking wider gender issues, including the situation of men.  Eurofound, as the tripartite European Agency responsible for analysing trends on the European labour markets since the mid-70s, has conducted research in both areas: specific analysis on women’s situations and more gender-driven research. In the latter, issues and analysis are developed that examine the situation of both men and women, particularly as regards the labour market and at work.
