| Annotation | Age is an important factor when considering working conditions and the differences between younger and older workers. This report is based on data from the fourth European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS) carried out across 31 countries in Europe in 2005. It covers issues such as career and employment security; health and well-being; skills development; and reconciling working and non-working life (the work-life balance). It looks at ways in which the quality of work and employment can be promoted, in order to encourage older workers to remain in the labour market for longer, and thereby achieve the Lisbon and Stockholm employment targets across Europe by 2010.
