The study Precarious Employment in Europe: Patterns, trends and policy strategies, commissioned by the European Parliament, aims at providing a systematic overview of recent trends in different types of employment relationships and the related risk of precariousness. The study uses a set of indicators with a conceptual link to quality of work. The most relevant indicator for individual risk of precariousness is in-work poverty and low pay. Other indicators include social security, labour rights, stress and health, career development and training, and low levels of collective rights. A separate publication is dedicated to Precarious Employment in Europe: Country cases.
