A sector perspective on working conditions

Secondary statistical analyses on the fourth European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS) have been commissioned with the aim of providing a sector perspective of working conditions. This report aims to: identify sectoral profiles on working conditions for the EWCS data collected in 2005 at NACE 1 and 2-digit level; present trends based on a comparison with previous versions of the EWCS (1995, 2000 and 2001–2002) at sectoral level (in 1990–1991, a different sectoral classification was used, which makes trend analysis including this first year of the survey impossible); and identify differences between country clusters in sectoral profiles. Sectoral profiles are available.
