Intergenerational solidarity.
European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
Publication
Luxembourg : Publications Office, 2012.
Summary
Population ageing is often viewed as an impending threat to the economic and social stability of post-industrial societies. Forecasters expect people aged 65 and over to make up 30% of the European Union population by 2060 – almost double today’s figure of 17%. At the same time, the working age population (aged 15–64 years) peaked in 2010 at 67% and is predicted to decline steadily to 59% by 2060. The upshot of the demographic shift is that social protection systems may become unsustainable as the demands upon them intensify while the number of net contributors declines.

Working time in the EU.
European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
Publication
Dublin : Eurofound, 2012.
Summary
Working time is a critical element in the working conditions of all workers and is one of the main points for negotiation in collective bargaining. The issue has far-reaching consequences for competitiveness, plays a role in shaping home life, and both reflects and influences gender equality and gender roles. For all these reasons, the issue of working time has received considerable attention in EU policymaking discussions over the last 20 years. These discussions have focused in particular on making working time more flexible and facilitating shorter working hours, both as a way of making jobs available to more citizens and to assist in balancing work and private life. Another key policy area implicated in working time is gender equality, stemming from the fact that men and women have very different working time patterns and that women tend to devote much more time to unpaid work in the home.

Flexicurity : perspectives and practice.
European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
Publication
Dublin : Eurofound, 2011.
Summary
The concept of flexicurity has been based on a notion that robust active labour market policies, lifelong learning investment and modern social security systems can ensure security of employment and income, even if contractual arrangements become more flexible and job transitions more frequent, as required by the rapidly evolving economic context. ... Discussing labour market reforms and the validity of flexicurity is therefore highly topical. In a period as transformative as this one, it is more than necessary to think how employment policy can help Europe emerge from the crisis with a stronger labour market.

Work-life balance : solving the dilemma.
European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
Publication
Dublin : Eurofound, 2007.
Summary
This issue of Foundation Findings deals with work-life balance in Europe. The EU needs to increase employment rates to ensure continued economic growth and promote social inclusion. To do this, it needs to make it easier for individuals to combine their work and family commitments to facilitate people – women in particular – to enter the labour market. Foundation Findings provide pertinent background information and policy pointers for all actors and interested parties engaged in the current European debate on the future of social policy. The contents are based on Foundation research and reflect its autonomous and tripartite structure.
