European Working Conditions Survey 2024: First findings

This publication contains 44 figures and 9 tables.

The European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS) 2024 ‘first findings’ factsheet provides the latest data on job quality in the EU as well as expert insights into the challenges and opportunities presented by a new world of work. Eurofound has been monitoring the development of job quality since the first round of the EWCS in 1990. The EWCS 2024 reveals the latest trends in job quality based on the seven dimensions of the job quality framework.

The survey also includes questions that capture changes in the way workers perform their work, the implications for work and for life outside of work, and whether or not workers’ expectations from work are met in terms of preferences and values. It highlights how the use of digital technologies in the workplace is reshaping job quality in multiple ways.
