Between autumn 2004 and spring 2005, the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions (Eurofound) carried out a comprehensive survey on working time and work–life balance in more than 21,000 European workplaces. Countries covered included the former 15 Member States of the European Union (EU15) and six of the new Member States (the Czech Republic, Cyprus, Latvia, Hungary, Poland and Slovenia). The survey shows that
UK companies and public sector bodies rank very highly in terms of flexibility.
