Europe faces a winter of uncertainty and potentially discontent. The cost of living is rising rapidly and the spectre of recession looms.
Economic concerns are affecting citizens’ trust in institutions. Research by Eurofound has indicated a decrease in trust in national institutions across the European Union – including in governments, healthcare systems and the police.
U ovom je izvješću predstavljeno Eurofoundovo istraživanje o radu na daljinu tijekom pandemije bolesti COVID-19 2020. i 2021. U njemu se istražuju promjene u učestalosti rada na daljinu, radni uvjeti zaposlenika koji rade od kuće i izmjene propisa kojima se rješavaju pitanja povezana s tom organizacijom rada. Rezultati upućuju na nagli porast rada na daljinu koji je potaknut pandemijom: u 2021. dvoje od desetero europskih zaposlenika radilo je na daljinu, što je brojka koja najvjerojatnije ne bi bila dosegnuta prije 2027. da nije nastupila pandemija.
Anketa Život, posao i COVID-19, koju je Eurofound prvi put pokrenuo početkom 2020., ima za cilj obuhvatiti širok utjecaj pandemije na rad i živote građana EU-a. Peti krug Eurofoundove ankete provedene u proljeće 2022., također ukazuje na novu neizvjesnu stvarnost zbog rata u Ukrajini, rekordno visoke inflacije i naglog porasta životnih troškova. U okviru pilot-istraživanja Europska zaklada za osposobljavanje (ETF) provela je kraću verziju upitnika u 10 susjednih zemalja Europske unije (EU).
Eurofound’s European Restructuring Monitor database reveals the impact of the energy crisis on employment in the EU. Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, energy prices have hit record highs. The European Commission imposed sanctions and limitations on the import of oil and gas from Russia, which has reacted by reneging on supply commitments to many Member States. Compared to other countries, market disruption has been especially acute in the EU, given the bloc’s overdependence on Russian energy supply.

U izvješću se analizira uloga socijalnog dijaloga i kolektivnog pregovaranja u rješavanju izazova s kojima se suočavao sektor civilnog zrakoplovstva tijekom pandemije bolesti COVID-19. Uključenost socijalnih partnera u definiranje mjera uvedenih radi ublažavanja negativnih učinaka pandemije razlikuje se među europskim zemljama. Socijalni dijalog i kolektivno pregovaranje imali su istaknutu ulogu u većini zemalja, dok je u drugima njihova uloga bila više ograničena.
U ovom se izvješću analizira uloga socijalnog dijaloga i kolektivnog pregovaranja u rješavanju izazova u bolničkom sektoru koji su nastali ili se pogoršali zbog pandemije bolesti COVID-19. Također se istražuje jesu li postojeći socijalni dijalog i postupci kolektivnog pregovaranja na nacionalnoj razini prilagođeni rješavanju tih novih izazova. Istraživanje je uključivalo i pregled literature kako bi se kontekstualizirala strukturna obilježja bolničkog sektora i analizu političkih inicijativa za upravljanje krizom provedenih u 27 država članica EU-a i Norveškoj.
Ovo se izvješće provodi u kontekstu trogodišnjeg pilot-projekta (2021. – 2023.), „Uloga minimalne plaće u uspostavi univerzalnog jamstva za rad”, koji je Europska komisija povjerila Eurofoundu. Naglasak je na 3. modulu projekta, kojim se istražuju minimalne plaće i drugi oblici plaća za samozaposlene osobe. Zbog zahtjevnih uvjeta s kojima se suočavaju određene skupine samozaposlenih radnika pojedine su države članice uspostavile neke zakonske oblike minimalne plaće za određene kategorije samozaposlenih osoba ili raspravljaju o njihovu predlaganju.
Stroga javnozdravstvena ograničenja koja su vlade uvele 2020. radi kontrole pandemije bolesti COVID-19 naglo su promijenila radni vijek i nastavila su ga oblikovati tijekom sljedeće dvije godine. U razdoblju od ožujka do studenoga 2021. u 36 zemalja provedeno je više od 70 000 intervjua u okviru Europskog telefonskog istraživanja o radnim uvjetima (EWCTS), visokokvalitetnog istraživanja koje se temelji na vjerojatnosti. Cilj je bio pružiti detaljnu sliku radnog vijeka Europljana u tom izvanrednom razdoblju.
