The workings of industrial relations are constantly evolving. In this blog piece, Eurofound authors Christian Welz and Ricardo Rodriguez Contreras discuss a tool that Eurofound has developed to enable this process of change to be monitored and analysed, enabling stakeholders in Member States to assess the functioning of industrial relations within their country and to compare it with others.
Results from Eurofound’s forthcoming report More and better jobs in home care services will be presented for the first time at a high-level event in Brussels on Thursday, 12 September 2013 at the Committee of the Regions. This one-day conference, organised by Eurofound under the auspices of the Lithuanian Presidency, will assess the policy challenges for long-term care as well as personal household services, particularly in relation to job creation and the quality of jobs in this sector.
