La presente relazione illustra le conseguenze della crisi di COVID-19 sulla qualità della vita dei cittadini più anziani, compresi gli effetti sul loro benessere, sulle loro finanze, sulla loro occupazione e sulla loro inclusione sociale. Analizza le conseguenze sul ricorso ai servizi di assistenza e sulla dipendenza degli anziani da altri tipi di sostegno. La relazione presenta le misure politiche attuate negli Stati membri dell’UE per fornire sostegno agli anziani in tutte le dimensioni summenzionate.
The first overview of minimum wage setting for 2022 shows that, while some negotiations are still ongoing, virtually all EU Member States have increased their nominal statutory rates. Compared to last year, when most countries settled for cautious increases against a background of deep uncertainty caused by the pandemic, growth in statutory rates for 2022 was stronger, reflecting an easing of the situation. This was especially the case in central and eastern European countries, where some increases were in double digits. Nevertheless, inflation is back in the picture and should be monitored in the coming months to get an insight into how the increases in nominal minimum wage rates translate into actual changes in the purchasing power of minimum wage earners.
This programming document describes Eurofound’s planned work over the programming period 2021–2024. It sets out the policy and institutional context for the programme, outlines the multiannual programme for the four-year period and sets out the work programme for 2022. Eurofound’s priorities for 2021–2024 are shaped by the key challenges for social cohesion and just transitions in a changing environment in the aftermath of the COVID-19 crisis. The Agency focuses on issues where it can draw on its core expertise in the areas of working conditions, industrial relations, employment and living conditions, to support its stakeholders, by providing evidence that can assist their policy action.
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.
La convergenza verso l’alto rappresenta il cuore del progetto dell’UE. Gli Stati membri e i loro cittadini firmano per far parte dell’Unione, poiché si aspettano che la loro adesione porti a una prosperità economica equilibrata e al progresso sociale in tutti i paesi. L’aumento delle disparità tra gli Stati membri, come è successo durante la crisi economica degli anni 2008-2013, potrebbe essere visto come un tradimento della promessa dell’UE e potenzialmente gettare i semi del malcontento e della disintegrazione.
Il cambiamento tecnologico sta accelerando con l’espansione della capacità dei dispositivi elettronici di memorizzare, elaborare e trasmettere informazioni in modo digitale. La digitalizzazione sta trasformando l’economia e i mercati del lavoro dell’UE: quasi un terzo dei posti di lavoro dell’Unione europea sono classificati come altamente digitalizzati. Quali sono le implicazioni della rivoluzione digitale per l’occupazione e il lavoro? E in che modo questa potrebbe influenzare il dialogo sociale?
Uno dei principali sviluppi che hanno caratterizzato gli ultimi cinquant’anni è stato l’enorme aumento della partecipazione delle donne al mercato del lavoro. Due nuovi posti di lavoro su tre netti creati nell’UE negli ultimi vent’anni sono stati occupati da donne. Nel contempo, i tassi di occupazione in forte crescita tra i lavoratori anziani, dovuti all’invecchiamento demografico e ai cambiamenti politici, hanno comportato un aumento della quota dei dipendenti anziani nel mercato del lavoro.
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.

The European Quality of Life Survey (EQLS) is carried out every four to five years since its inception in 2003, with the latest edition in 2016. It examines both the objective circumstances of people's lives and how they feel about those circumstances and their lives in general. It covers issues around employment, income, education, housing, family, health and work–life balance. It also looks at subjective topics, such as people's levels of happiness and life satisfaction, and perceptions of the quality of society.
