Survey objectives

The main objectives of the survey are to:

Tivvaluta u tikkwantifika l-kundizzjonijiet tax-xogħol kemm tal-impjegati kif ukoll ta' dawk li jaħdmu għal rashom madwar l-Ewropa fuq bażi armonizzata.

Analizza r-relazzjonijiet bejn aspetti differenti tal-kundizzjonijiet tax-xogħol.

Identifika gruppi f'riskju u kwistjonijiet ta' tħassib kif ukoll ta' progress.

Tissorvelja x-xejriet billi tipprovdi indikaturi omoġenji dwar dawn il-kwistjonijiet.

Tikkontribwixxi għall-iżvilupp tal-politika Ewropea dwar il-kwalità tax-xogħol u kwistjonijiet ta' impjiegi.

The scope of the survey questionnaire has widened substantially since the first edition, aiming to provide a comprehensive picture of the everyday reality of men and women at work. Gender mainstreaming has been an important concern for recent reviews of the questionnaire.

Themes covered include employment status, working time duration and organisation, work organisation, learning and training, physical and psychosocial risk factors, health and safety, work-life balance, worker participation, earnings and financial security, as well as work and health.

In each wave a random sample of workers (employees and self-employed) has been interviewed face to face. Following the European enlargements and interest from the EFTA countries the geographical coverage of the survey has expanded.
