Töötingimused
Töötingimused viitavad tingimustele, milles ja mille all tööd tehakse. Töötingimus on töö omaduste või nende kombinatsioon, mida saab muuta ja parandada. Praegused töötingimuste käsitlused hõlmavad laiemate tegurite arvestamist, mis võivad töötajat psühhosomaatiliselt mõjutada. Seega hõlmab mõiste laiem definitsioon töö majanduslikku mõõdet ja mõju elutingimustele. Töötingimused on tööõiguse teema ja neid reguleerivad kõik selle erinevad allikad: seadusandlus, kollektiivlepingud, tööreeglid, tööleping ning ka tava ja tava.

Working conditions in the time of COVID-19: Implications for the future
The strict public health restrictions implemented by governments in 2020 to control the COVID-19 pandemic abruptly changed working life and continued to shape it over the two years that followed. Between March and November 2021, over 70,000 interviews were carried out in 36 countries by the European Working Conditions Telephone Survey (EWCTS), a high-quality probability-based survey. The aim was to provide a detailed picture of the working lives of Europeans in that exceptional time.
The report documents the working conditions of Europeans in 2021. It examines variation in job quality and identifies its positive association with well-being, health, work engagement and the financial sustainability of work. It highlights the divergences in the experiences of workers depending on workers’ own attributes and their place in the workforce. From this analysis, the report aims to derive lessons for the future, particularly in relation to the enduring marks on how we work and the implications for work organisation, the quality of work, and the interaction between work and private life.

Living, working and COVID-19 in the European Union and 10 EU neighbouring countries
The Living, working and COVID-19 survey, first launched by Eurofound in early 2020, aims to capture the wide-ranging impact of the pandemic on the work and lives of EU citizens. The fifth round of the Eurofound survey, which was implemented in spring 2022, also sheds light on a new uncertain reality caused by the war in Ukraine, record-high inflation and sharp rises in the cost of living. As a pilot survey, a shorter version of the questionnaire was fielded by the European Training Foundation (ETF) in 10 European Union (EU) neighbouring countries. This joint Eurofound-ETF factsheet presents a selection of results from the survey covering both the EU-27 and the 10 selected EU neighbouring countries.
The results reveal at least one clear commonality across respondents from all countries: serious concerns about the rising cost of living. At the same time, the results point to a large divergence in living and working conditions between respondents in the two groups of countries, but also show large differences within the EU itself and amongst the selected EU neighbouring countries.

Tööelu COVID-19 pandeemia ajal 2021
See väljaanne koosneb üksikute riikide aruannetest tööelu kohta 2021. aastal 28 riigis – 27 ELi liikmesriigis ja Norras. Riigi aruanded võtavad kokku tõendid COVID-19 pandeemia mõju kohta tööelule, tuginedes riiklikele uuringutele ja küsitlustulemustele 2021. aastal. Need kirjeldavad valitsuste ja sotsiaalpartnerite poliitilisi vastuseid nende pingutustes sotsiaalmajanduslike mõjude leevendamiseks ning keskenduvad poliitikavaldkondadele, mis on seotud pandeemiaga kohanemise ja tööle naasmisega. See hõlmab eriti rõhku uutele töötervishoiu ja tööohutuse korraldustele, uutele töökorraldustele, poliitikatele tööjõupuuduse lahendamiseks, palkade ja palkade kehtestamisele. Aruanded käsitlevad ka pandeemia mõju sotsiaalsele dialoogile, kollektiivläbirääkimistele ja tööstusaktsioonile.
Palun pange tähele, et 2021. aastal puudub ELi tööelu kohta konsolideeritud aruanne.

Overtime in Europe: Regulation and practice
Despite the well-known adverse effects of regular long working hours on workers’ health, well-being and performance, many workers in the EU continue to work beyond their normal hours. Part of this additional working time is classified as overtime. This report takes a comparative overview of how overtime is regulated in the EU Member States, Norway and the United Kingdom, including its definition, the limits on its use and the compensation received by workers for working extra hours. The report assesses the extent of the phenomenon using national-level data, delves into the factors that explain it, and examines the potential consequences for workers and firms. Finally, the report summarises the current debate on the topic, as uncompensated working hours, structural overtime and monitoring of working hours are currently some of the most discussed work-related issues across the EU.

Employee monitoring and surveillance: The challenges of digitalisation
New digital technologies have expanded the possibilities of employee monitoring and surveillance, both in and outside the workplace. In the context of the increasing digitalisation of work, there are many issues related to employee monitoring that warrant the attention of policymakers. As well as the often-cited privacy and ethical concerns, there are also important implications for worker–employer relations, as digitally enabled monitoring and surveillance inevitably shift power dynamics in the workplace. Based on input from the Network of Eurofound Correspondents, this report explores the regulatory approaches to workplace monitoring in Europe, and the many challenges arising from the use of new digital technologies. Drawing from empirical and qualitative research, the report also provides some insight into the extent of employee monitoring in Europe and the implications for job quality and work organisation.

Telework and ICT-based mobile work: Flexible working in the digital age
Advances in ICT have opened the door to new ways of organising work. We are shifting from a regular, bureaucratic and ‘factory-based’ working time pattern towards a more flexible model of work. Telework and ICT-based mobile work (TICTM) has emerged in this transition, giving workers and employers the ability to adapt the time and location of work to their needs. Despite the flexibility and higher level of worker autonomy inherent in TICTM, there are risks that this work arrangement leads to the deterioration of work–life balance, higher stress levels and failing worker health. This report analyses the employment and working conditions of workers with TICTM arrangements, focusing on how it affects their work–life balance, health, performance and job prospects. While policymakers in many EU countries are debating TICTM and its implications, the study finds that only a few have implemented new regulations to prevent TICTM from having a negative impact on the well-being of workers.
