Eurofound surveys

Eurofound surveys are regular pan-European studies that gather comparative data on living and working conditions across the European Union.

Since its launch in 1990, the European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS) has provided an overview of working conditions in Europe.

Rounds available

Survey objectives

The main objectives of the survey are to:

Dálaí oibre fostaithe agus féinfhostaithe araon ar fud na hEorpa a mheas agus a chainníochtú ar bhonn comhchuibhithe.

Anailís a dhéanamh ar chaidrimh idir gnéithe éagsúla de choinníollacha oibre.

Grúpaí atá i mbaol agus saincheisteanna imní agus dul chun cinn a aithint.

Monatóireacht a dhéanamh ar threochtaí trí tháscairí aonchineálacha a sholáthar ar na saincheisteanna seo.

Rannchuidiú le forbairt beartais Eorpaigh maidir le cáilíocht na hoibre agus saincheisteanna fostaíochta.

The scope of the survey questionnaire has widened substantially since the first edition, aiming to provide a comprehensive picture of the everyday reality of men and women at work. Gender mainstreaming has been an important concern for recent reviews of the questionnaire.

Themes covered include employment status, working time duration and organisation, work organisation, learning and training, physical and psychosocial risk factors, health and safety, work-life balance, worker participation, earnings and financial security, as well as work and health.

In each wave a random sample of workers (employees and self-employed) has been interviewed face to face. Following the European enlargements and interest from the EFTA countries the geographical coverage of the survey has expanded.
