Annual EU Employment and Social Welfare Review

Published 29.01.2014.

The European Commission published an Annual Employment and Social Welfare Review for 2013, as an overview of the situation in this area in the European Union in 2013. The Review stresses the need to eliminate risk of in-work poverty. One of the most striking social consequences of the financial crisis is said to be a significant increase of poverty among the working age population.

Should the trend of wages polarization persist, primarily due to increase of half-time labour, there is a threat that gradual reduction of unemployment rates would not suffice to palpably reduce in-work poverty.

This is one of the main findings of the review discussing also positive effects of social benefits on the probability of employability, consequences of persistent gender inequality and social dimension of economic and monetary union.

The overview shows how contracting employment may help people to exit poverty, but only in 50% of the cases, for, as stated, the level of poverty depends on the type of job as well as the composition of a household and the labour status of the partner.
