Comparative Report on Care Workers’ Job Quality and Inclusive Working Conditions

  • Mia Rönnmar

The comparative report, corresponding to WP2 of the ‘CARE4CARE - We care for those who care’ research project, examines job quality and inclusive working conditions for care workers in six EU Member States: France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, and Sweden. The comparative analysis focuses on labour law but also covers industrial relations, policy, and labour market characteristics, as well as the interplay between national and EU/international law. CARE4CARE targets care workers in the public and private care sector, and in formal and informal economies, who perform paid work and provide personal and/or health assistance to elderly persons, sick persons, or persons with disabilities, particularly those with at most a Bachelor’s degree. The report synthesises and compares findings from national reports authored by experts from each country.
