Abstract

This report and the accompanying 33 sectoral information sheets aim to capture the diversity prevalent across sectors in Europe in terms of working conditions and job quality. The information sheets indicate how workers in each sector compare to the European average for all workers, as well as highlighting differences and similarities among different groups of workers. The report pinpoints trends across sectors in areas such as working time and work–life balance, work organisation, skills and training, employee representation and the psychosocial and physical environment. It identifies sectors that score particularly well or particularly poorly in terms of job quality and sheds light on differences between sectors in terms of health and well-being. An executive summary is also available - see Related content.

    Cover image of Работни услови и квалитет на работното место: споредба на секторите во Европа
    Овој извештај и приложените 33 информативни листови за секторот имаат за цел да ја отсликаат разновидноста што преовладува во секторите низ Европа во поглед на работните услови и квалитетот на работните места. Информативните листови покажуваат како работниците во секој сектор се споредуваат со европскиот просек за сите работници, а ги нагласуваат и разликите и сличностите меѓу различни групи работници. Извештајот укажува на трендовите низ секторите во области како што се работно време и рамнотежата помеѓу работата и приватниот живот, организацијата на работата, вештините и обуката, застапувањето на вработените и психолошката и физичката околина. Ги утврдува секторите што имаат особено добри или особено лоши резултати во однос на квалитетот на работните места и фрла светлина на разликите меѓу секторите во поглед на здравјето и благосостојбата.
