Regulación laboral y social

La regulación laboral y social abarca el marco jurídico y los derechos sociales fundamentales que regulan las relaciones laborales, el empleo y las políticas sociales en toda Europa. Incluye legislación nacional, de la UE e internacional. El Derecho laboral de la Unión tiene un impacto directo o indirecto en los marcos normativos y funcionales de los sistemas de Derecho laboral individuales y colectivos de los Estados miembros en una relación de injerencia e interacción mutuas. Cada vez más, la legislación laboral de la Unión también está conformada por acuerdos que las partes celebran voluntariamente y por mecanismos de Derecho indicativo. La reforma o modernización de la legislación laboral ocupa actualmente un lugar destacado en la agenda de varios Estados miembros.

After #MeToo: Changes in sexual harassment policy at work

Sara Riso

The #MeToo movement, which began in 2017 with allegations of sexual harassment and assault in the entertainment industry, has brought significant attention to sexual harassment, particularly as it affects working women. The #MeToo movement has sparked a broader discussion about the prevalence of sexual misconduct at work and has driven legislative changes in several countries. Based on information collected from Eurofound’s Network of European Correspondents, this article reviews the various approaches to addressing sexual harassment in EU Member States and highlights recent policy changes.

Workplace bullying, harassment and cyberbullying: Are regulations and policies fit for purpose?

Sara Riso

Over the last decade, information and communication technologies have changed the way employees work and communicate with each other. While the digitalisation of work offers many benefits, widespread access to digital devices in working life has created new forms of antisocial behaviour. This report maps national regulatory instruments aimed at counteracting antisocial behaviours at work, particularly bullying and harassment. Legislative reviews indicate that in many Member States online forms of abuse are often viewed as extensions of the traditional form of face-to-face bullying or harassment rather than as a distinct phenomenon requiring separate regulation. Some countries have amended existing legislation to include cyberbullying and online harassment. This report reviews to what extent such online conduct is regulated in EU Member States and Norway. As regulatory change is generally prompted by a certain level of policy debate, the report also explores national-level debates and whether there is empirical evidence documenting the issue or that potentially indicate a rise in the phenomenon.
