The European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions (Eurofound), in January 2010, launched the fieldwork for the fifth European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS). This research tracks the current state of working conditions in Europe, highlights the quality of work and employment, and monitors changing trends. The survey will provide valuable and unique comparative information about working conditions, including issues such as working time, exposure to risks at work, health and safety at work, work organisation, work-life balance, training, and overall job satisfaction. The first findings of the survey will be presented at the end of 2010.
