Uneven picture of a changing Europe: Findings from Living and Working in the EU e-survey 2025

Findings from the 2025 (eighth) round of Eurofound’s Living and working in the EU e-survey suggest persistent economic strain and uneven levels of resilience across Member States.

Pá íosta

Tagraíonn an téarma 'pá íosta' don srian rialála ar an ráta is ísle atá iníoctha ag fostóirí le hoibrithe. Rialaítear íosphá reachtúil le dlíthe nó le reachtanna foirmiúla. Tá pá íosta comhaontaithe i gcomhaontuithe comhchoiteanna leagtha síos i gcomhaontuithe comhchoiteanna idir ceardchumainn agus fostóirí. Úsáidtear an téarma 'pá íosta náisiúnta' nuair a bhíonn bunráta amháin (nó níos mó) ag tíortha a chlúdaíonn oibrithe ar fud na tíre. Is féidir iad a bheith reachtúil nó comhaontaithe i dteannta a chéile.
