Knowledge sources for living and working conditions in the European Union
Eurofound is the tripartite EU agency providing knowledge to assist in the development of better social, employment and work-related policies.
Our unique data collections and web applications give access to information from all EU Member States and are updated in regular intervals by research experts at Eurofound and the Network of Eurofound Correspondents (NEC).
Eurofound's EU PolicyWatch collates information on the responses of government and social partners to the COVID-19 crisis, the war in Ukraine, rising inflation, as well as gathering examples of company practices aimed at mitigating the social and economic impacts.
Eurofound’s platform economy database provides information on initiatives and court cases that exist or have been implemented in relation to activities in the platform economy. This database provides metadata for each entry, such as geographical scope, year, type of initiative, actors involved, sector and companies concerned.
