| Annotation | This report looks at the way European countries cope with needs for care services, where care is defined as excluding medical and educational services. The countries covered include Iceland and Norway as well as the 15 European Union (EU) Member States, and formal and informal provisions of care are examined mainly from the perspective of the working population, women in particular. Part 1 provides a synthesis and overview of care strategies, using information from the national tables in Part 2, which comments on the most important care provisions for each country. (RH). |
