Working in the age of AI – How are working conditions changing across Europe?

Europe’s labour market is changing fast, driven in part by rapid advances in digitalisation and artificial intelligence - but not for everyone. New findings from the European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS) 2024 reveal that while job quality in the EU is improving, deep differences persist across sectors, age groups and gender. This event, organised with support of the European Parliament, presented selected findings from the EWCS overview report and explored what the data mean for EU policy debates on quality jobs, fairness, competitiveness and the future of work. A keynote address by MEP Li Andersson, Chair, European Parliament Employment and Social Affairs Committee, set the scene for panel discussions rooted in the survey’s evidence. Francesco Corti, Member of Cabinet, European Commission Executive Vice-President for Social Rights, Skills, Quality Jobs and Preparedness, Laura Nurski, Head of Programme Future of Work, Centre for European Policy Studies and Marit Maij MEP, commented on the survey findings.
