Radni vijek tijekom pandemije COVID-19 2021.
Ova publikacija sastoji se od izvještaja pojedinih zemalja o radnom životu tijekom 2021. za 28 zemalja – 27 država članica EU-a i Norvešku. Izvješća o zemlji sažimaju dokaze o utjecaju pandemije COVID-19 na radni život na temelju nacionalnih istraživanja i rezultata anketa tijekom 2021. godine. Oni opisuju političke odgovore vlada i socijalnih partnera u njihovim nastojanjima da ublaže socioekonomske učinke te uključuju fokus na područja politike vezana uz prilagodbu pandemiji i povratak na posao. To posebno uključuje fokus na nove zdravstvene i sigurnosne aranžmane na radnom mjestu, nove radne aranžmane, politike za rješavanje nedostatka radne snage i plaća te određivanje plaća. Izvještaji također istražuju utjecaj pandemije na društveni dijalog, kolektivno pregovaranje i industrijske akcije.
Napominjemo da ne postoji konsolidirano izvješće o radnom životu u EU u 2021. godini.
