    Working conditions in sectors [er]. European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
    Publication
    Luxembourg : Publications Office, 2020.
    Summary
    Megatrends, such as digitalisation, globalisation, demographic change and climate change, are transforming the world of work, with knock-on effects for working conditions and job quality. Against this background, this report examines working conditions and job quality from a sectoral perspective, using data from the 2015 European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS). The report first outlines the sectoral characteristics underpinning employment – economic structure, demographics, occupational level and employment status. It then goes on to focus on four main topics: changing tasks, skills, training and employability; non-standard employment and employment security; health, well-being and flexible work organisation; and employee representation and voice. Differences in working conditions arising from age, gender, occupation and education level are taken into account. According to the analysis, developing measures to address relevant issues such as skills development, job security and work intensity should be a priority for policy. The data also show that the presence of employee representation and voice is key to improving the situation of employees.

    Addressing household over-indebtedness [er]. European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
    Publication
    Luxembourg : Publications Office, 2020.
    Summary
    The issue of over-indebtedness continues to be a concern, particularly among some population groups and in Member States where recent increases can be observed. This report provides an overview of the main causes, triggers and consequences of household over-indebtedness, including the costs to society. It then examines two policy responses in the EU and Norway: debt advisory services and debt settlement procedures. While the findings show that in the wake of the global financial crisis, such services and procedures have generally become more widely available and accessible, gaps remain. The overall aim of the report is to draw the attention of national and EU-level policymakers to ways to improve policy responses to household over-indebtedness.

    ¿Qué hace de las capitales el mejor lugar para vivir? European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
    Publication
    Luxembourg : Publications Office, [2020], c2020.
    Summary
    Los datos sobre la calidad de vida ponen de manifiesto que, en la mayor parte de los países, las capitales presentan ventajas en relación con las demás regiones. A la luz del continuo crecimiento de las poblaciones de las capitales y la cantidad de recursos que concentran, el presente informe de políticas analiza el origen de las ventajas de las capitales en relación con la calidad de vida. ¿Estas ventajas están relacionadas principalmente con los grupos demográficos específicos que estas ciudades favorecen y atraen? ¿O se deben a oportunidades que las ciudades grandes ofrecen gracias a su tamaño y crecimiento económico? El objetivo del presente informe de políticas es arrojar luz sobre la cuestión de por qué la política debe centrarse tanto en la economía como en la sociedad para progresar en materia económica, social y territorial.

    Was macht Hauptstädte zu den lebenswertesten Orten? [er]. European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
    Publication
    Luxembourg : Publications Office, [2020], c2020.
    Summary
    Daten zur Lebensqualität machen deutlich, dass in den meisten Ländern die Hauptstadt Vorteile gegenüber den Regionen außerhalb der Hauptstadt besitzt. Angesichts des anhaltenden Wachstums der Bevölkerung und der Konzentration von Ressourcen in den Hauptstädten wird in diesem Kurzbericht untersucht, welche Ursachen den Vorteilen, die Hauptstädte in punkto Lebensqualität bieten, zugrunde liegen. Sind diese Vorteile weitgehend auf spezifische demografische Gegebenheiten zurückzuführen, die von den Städten nach wie vor kultiviert und angezogen werden? Oder rühren sie vielmehr von den Möglichkeiten her, die große Städte aufgrund ihrer Größe und ihres Wirtschaftswachstums bieten können? Mit diesem Kurzbericht soll geklärt werden, weshalb sich die Politik bei der Förderung des wirtschaftlichen, sozialen und territorialen Zusammenhalts sowohl auf die Wirtschaft als auch auf die Gesellschaft konzentrieren sollte.

    Pourquoi les capitales sont-elles les meilleurs lieux de vie? European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
    Publication
    Luxembourg : Publications Office, [2020], c2020.
    Summary
    Les données sur la qualité de vie montrent que, dans la plupart des pays, la capitale présente des atouts par rapport aux régions situées en dehors de la capitale. Compte tenu de la croissance continue de la population des capitales et de la concentration des ressources en leur sein, cette note d’orientation explore les fondements des atouts des capitales en matière de qualité de vie. Ces atouts sont-ils principalement liés aux caractéristiques des populations spécifiques que ces villes entretiennent et attirent ? Ou bien proviennent-ils des perspectives offertes par les grandes villes en raison de leur taille et de leur croissance économique ? La présente note d’orientation vise à clarifier les raisons pour lesquelles la politique devrait se concentrer à la fois sur l’économie et sur la société lorsqu’il s’agit de faire progresser la cohésion économique, sociale et territoriale.

    What makes capital cities the best places to live? [er]. European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
    Publication
    Luxembourg : Publications Office, [2020], c2020.
    Summary
    Quality of life data show that in most countries, the capital city has advantages compared to the regions outside the capital. In light of the continued growth of capital city populations and the concentration of resources within them, this policy brief explores the source of the advantages of capital cities in quality of life. Are these advantages mostly related to specific demographics that these cities nurture and attract? Or do these advantages stem from opportunities that major cities provide due to their scale and economic growth? The policy brief aims to clarify why policy should focus on both the economy and society when it comes to advancing economic, social and territorial cohesion.

    Household composition and well-being [er]. European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions.
    Publication
    Luxembourg : Publications Office, 2019.
    Summary
    Demographic change, social progress and economic cycles have impacted household composition in Europe. This report provides an overview of household types in the European Union, how they have changed over the period 2007–2017 and how household type relates to outcomes in terms of living conditions and well-being – such as life satisfaction, the feeling of social exclusion and mental well-being. Changes in household structure have a potential impact on demand for public services and social benefits. The report also discusses the policy implications of changing household composition and recent policies responding to the increasing diversity of households. The report underlines the importance of recognition of diverse family forms, of the provision of social support, and of family policy measures complementing income support in reducing inequality of well-being among households.
