Nos 10 anos de 2014 a 2024, o número de assistentes sociais na UE aumentou de 8 milhões para 10 milhões. Representam agora 5% da força de trabalho total da UE. Ao mesmo tempo, o setor enfrenta escassez de mão de obra e continua a caracterizar-se por baixos salários – cerca de 20% menos do que o salário médio no conjunto das economias dos Estados-Membros.
