The dawn of 2022 brought muted optimism to a Europe beginning to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic, and the progress of vaccination programmes worldwide brought hope. Government and EU support during the pandemic had kept unemployment at bay, averting the widescale collapse of businesses. In step with the EU’s plans for the year, Eurofound’s focus was firmly on a post-pandemic Europe: the recovery and the twin transition to a green and digital economy. All this changed with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the start of a war of aggression. The EU and its institutions were compelled to respond rapidly.
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.
Este relatório apresenta as investigações do Eurofound sobre o teletrabalho durante a pandemia da COVID-19 em 2020 e 2021. Explora as alterações na incidência do teletrabalho, as condições laborais de quem trabalhava a partir de casa e as alterações regulamentares relativas a questões relacionadas com este regime de trabalho. Os resultados revelam um aumento significativo do teletrabalho provocado pela pandemia: em 2021, 2 em cada 10 trabalhadores europeus estavam em teletrabalho – um número que provavelmente não teria sido alcançado antes de 2027 caso a pandemia não tivesse ocorrido.
O inquérito A vida, o trabalho e a COVID-19, lançado pela primeira vez pela Eurofound em 2020, procura registar o impacto amplo da pandemia no trabalho e nas vidas dos cidadãos da UE. A quinta ronda do inquérito da Eurofound, que foi implementada na primavera de 2022, traz também à luz uma realidade incerta nova causada pela guerra na Ucrânia, inflação com valores recorde e aumentos acentuados no custo de vida. Como inquérito-piloto, foi utilizada uma versão mais curta do questionário pela Fundação Europeia para a Formação (ETF) em 10 países vizinhos da União Europeia (UE).
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.

Este relatório analisa o papel do diálogo social e da negociação coletiva na abordagem dos desafios criados ou exacerbados pela pandemia de COVID-19 no setor hospitalar. Também explora se o diálogo social e os processos de negociação coletiva existentes a nível nacional foram adaptados a fim de enfrentar estes novos desafios. A investigação incluiu uma revisão bibliográfica para contextualizar as características estruturais do setor hospitalar e uma análise das iniciativas políticas para gerir a crise implementadas em toda a UE27 e na Noruega.
O presente relatório é elaborado no contexto do projeto-piloto de três anos (2021-2023) intitulado «Papel do salário mínimo na criação da Garantia Universal do Trabalho», mandatado pela Comissão Europeia à Eurofound.

As rigorosas restrições de saúde pública aplicadas pelos governos em 2020 para controlar a pandemia de COVID-19 alteraram abruptamente a vida profissional e continuaram a moldá-la ao longo dos dois anos que se seguiram. Entre março e novembro de 2021, foram realizadas mais de 70 000 entrevistas em 36 países pelo Inquérito Europeu sobre as Condições de Trabalho (IECT) por telefone, um inquérito de alta qualidade baseado na probabilidade. O objetivo era fornecer uma imagem pormenorizada da vida profissional dos europeus nesse período excecional.
