Abstract

What have been the major trends and policy developments regarding the flexibilisation of employment in recent years? Eurofound's work programme for 2017-2020 set out to document and capture these changes in the world of work. This flagship publication provides an overview of developments in Europe in the wake of the global financial crisis, as well as mapping the ongoing challenges and policy approaches taken at EU and national levels to find the right balance between flexibility and security in the labour market. Based, in part, on European Working Conditions Survey data, the findings of this report map labour market changes between 2008 and 2018 with a specific focus on working time, contract type and employment status.

Abstract

Publication metadata This report sets out to assess the initial impact of the COVID-19 crisis on employment in Europe (up to Q2 2020), including its effects across sectors and on different categories of workers. It also looks at measures implemented by policymakers in a bid to limit the negative effects of the crisis. It first provides an overview of policy approaches adopted to mitigate the impact of the crisis on businesses, workers and citizens. The main focus is on the development, content and impact of short-time working schemes, income support measures for self-employed people, hardship funds and rent and mortgage deferrals. Finally, it explores the involvement of social partners in the development and implementation of such measures and the role of European funding in supporting these schemes. Eurofound established the COVID-19 EU PolicyWatch database in March 2020 to provide policymakers with information on measures taken to mitigate the impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis on the labour market and wider society. At the same time, an e-survey, 'Living, working and COVID-19', was conducted and activities to monitor labour market trends and restructuring were continued in an effort to capture the fallout from the pandemic.

Abstract

Restructuring is part and parcel of labour market changes in all modern societies and is viewed as a precondition of economic growth. The 2018 annual report from the European Restructuring Monitor (ERM) examines the impact of restructuring on employees who remain in the workforce and what can be done to minimise the disruption among this group. Using data from the European Working Conditions Survey 2015 and illustrations of restructuring practices in selected companies, the report explores how various workplace factors during the restructuring process – information and consultation, perceptions of fair treatment, quality of management leadership and social support from colleagues – may influence outcomes for employees. The findings reveal that the prevalence of some of these factors at the workplace may buffer the adverse impact of restructuring on employees

Abstract

The 2016 annual report from the European Restructuring Monitor (ERM) provides evidence of the employment impact of recent restructuring activity in Europe based on the European Union Labour Force Survey (EU-LFS) and the ERM events database. The thematic part of this year’s report centres on trends in both the offshoring and reshoring activity of companies in Europe, with a focus on the manufacturing sector. ERM data indicates that offshoring has never been a large source of job loss in Europe, and the analysis finds that offshoring started to decline after the global financial crisis and has yet to recover. It also finds that offshoring has increased in eastern Europe while it has declined in western Europe. Evidence of reshoring is limited; what evidence exists suggests that it is a relatively minor phenomenon

Abstract

Europe has begun to emerge from the prolonged slump caused by the global financial crisis in 2008 and exacerbated by the euro zone single-currency crisis in 2010–2011. In the last year, aggregate employment levels have risen faster than at any time since 2008. This, the fourth annual European Jobs Monitor report, looks in detail at shifts in the employment structure at Member State and aggregate EU level over 2011–2014. The objective is to assess the extent to which recent shifts are polarising, arising from a decline in mid-paid jobs, or upgrading as a result of growth in high-paid jobs. The analysis finds that the most recent pattern is more downward‑skewed, mainly as a result of stronger growth in less knowledge‑intensive services. The report also summarises the main findings from two other analyses of labour market shifts: one centres on developments in six European countries, while the other focuses on six non-EU countries.
