Working conditions and workers' health / Bettina Kubicek... [et al.]. — Dublin : Eurofound, 2019

80 p.

Sumario: Ensuring the sustainability of pension systems in the context of ageing populations has become a priority: it requires that more people enter employment and that they work longer. At the same time, pressure on workers is rising due partly to ongoing change in how work is organised and performed; in turn, this impacts on the type and nature of risks associated with work. For workers to remain longer in the labour force, work must be made sustainable by reducing health-impairing conditions and fostering health-promoting ones. To this end, understanding the relationships between working conditions and workers' health and well-being is key. This report examines these relationships in the EU28 using data from the European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS).
