Eurofound launches Europe-wide survey on living and working conditions

Eurofound, in partnership with the European Training Foundation (ETF), has launched a new online survey which aims to document living and working conditions in Europe and the evolving concerns of citizens amidst the cost-of-living crisis, the war in Ukraine, and the broader post-COVID-19 context.

The survey, entitled Living and working in the EU and neighbouring countries, builds upon other online surveys carried out by Eurofound over the past three years. This survey, available in 33 languages and open to all citizens over the age of 16, asks specific questions on perceptions of quality of life and quality of society, as well as working situation, and housing and finances. It also includes questions aimed at younger citizens in order to document how they are adapting to a rapidly changing Europe.

Speaking on the launch of the survey, Eurofound Senior Research Manager Daphne Ahrendt emphasised the importance of the timing of the research, ‘This survey comes at a pivotal time for Europe, as many citizens are grappling with a cost-of-living crisis that is having a profound impact on their lives. This survey gives a voice to citizens to express their concerns, as well as their sentiments for the future of Europe.’

The survey is available until the end of May, click here to fill it in.
