The European Union Agencies Network on Scientific Advice (EU-ANSA) consists of technical and regulatory agencies that provide scientific advice to EU policymakers. This report demonstrates how EU-ANSA member Agencies are addressing the socioeconomic effects of sustainable development. It is based on two surveys conducted among the member Agencies. The survey results show that the most researched areas include the economy, employment, skills and training, gender inequalities, health and safety, social aspects, the role of regulation and social dialogue.
Uzlazna konvergencija središnja je težnja projekata EU-a. Države članice i njihovi građani pristupaju Uniji jer očekuju da će članstvo dovesti do uravnoteženog gospodarskog i socijalnog napretka u državama. Povećane nejednakosti između država članica koje su nastale tijekom gospodarske krize 2008. – 2013. mogu se smatrati kršenjem obećanja EU-a i na taj način mogu potaknuti nezadovoljstvo i raspad. Ovo izvješće rezultat je Eurofoundovog istraživanja nadzora konvergencije u EU-u, koje je započelo 2017. Njime se opisuje promjenjiva dinamika uzlazne konvergencije u razdoblju od 2008.
Tehnološka promjena ubrzava zajedno s rastom mogućnosti elektroničkih uređaja da digitalno pohranjuju, obrađuju i prenose informacije. Digitalizacija transformira gospodarstvo i tržišta rada EU-a: gotovo trećina radnih mjesta u EU-u smatraju se visoko digitaliziranima. Koje su posljedice digitalne revolucije za zapošljavanje i rad? Kako to može utjecati na socijalni dijalog?
Jedan od najuočljivijih događaja u proteklih pola stoljeća bio je golem porast sudjelovanja žena na tržištu rada. Žene su zaposlene na dva od tri neto nova radna mjesta otvorena tijekom posljednja dva desetljeća u EU-u. Istodobno se povećao udio starijih radnika na tržištu rada, kao posljedica naglog povećanja stope zaposlenosti starijih radnika zbog starenja stanovništva i promjena u politikama. U ovom se izvješću ispituju učinci promjenjive ponude radne snage na strukturu zaposlenosti u Europi tijekom posljednjih četvrt stoljeća (1995. – 2019.).
Despite the increasing participation of women in the labour market and a higher share of women than men being hired into well-paid jobs in recent years, a gender pay gap exists across all EU Member States. Pay differentials between women and men have been shown to be significantly influenced by the economic sector where people work and the occupation they hold.
Digital transformation is changing the world of work. This report looks at how social partners – the actors involved in the regulation of employment relationships – are increasingly adopting technological solutions to improve the services that they provide to their members and facilitate collective bargaining processes. Technological tools offer social partners the opportunity to enhance consultation, engage with their members through digitised processes, improve services and increase networking activities, as well as addressing the issue of membership decline.
Cilj je ovog izvješća pomoći europskim poduzećima u suočavanju s izazovima koje je donijela pandemija bolesti COVID-19. Naglasak je na praksama i značajkama radnih mjesta koje su pomogle poduzećima u EU-u da razviju operativnu otpornost uz istodobno očuvanje sigurnosti zaposlenika i klijenata.
This report analyses and compares the industrial relations landscape in several sectors and activities that form a public service cluster across the 27 EU Member States and the UK – altogether employing over 57 million workers and representing 25% of the total workforce in the economy. It is based on Eurofound’s representativeness studies on the central government administration (CGA), education, human health, local and regional government (LRG), and social services sectors.
The advent of AI has far more consequences for how work is organised, performed and valued than any previous technological revolution. In order to make the most of this digital transformation we need inclusive and nuanced policy debates on its employment effects and how to future-proof policies: we need to talk about AI.
We need to study and understand the blow Europe’s youth have suffered from the COVID-19 pandemic, in order to adjust recovery and resilience measures to their needs: without prioritising young people in the present, we have little hope for the future.

The employment implications (number of jobs by sector, occupation, wage profile, and task content) under various possible scenarios are examined. The scenarios focus on various possible developments in global trade and energy policies and technological progress and run to 2030.
Digitisation and automation technologies, including artificial intelligence, are rapidly evolving, and becoming increasingly powerful and pervasive. While the implications of digital technologies on ethics and working conditions should be explored as they emerge, it is also important to anticipate any unintended effects that raise new ethical challenges. Drawing on different research methods and building on previous research, this report examines the effects of digital technologies on fundamental rights, ethical principles and working conditions.

The analysis also includes the development of a composite indicator and an integrated indicator for all four industrial relations dimensions.
The interaction between workers and machines has increased due to the rapid advancement of automation technologies. The new wave of robots can perform tasks with more flexibility, greater sophistication and in a way that protects workers’ physical safety. Drawing on case studies of advanced robotics, this report explores the benefits and risks that come with closer human–machine interaction, the organisational practices needed to deal with emerging issues and the real concerns and challenges.
