Project summary For the last two decades, European countries have faced unprecedented structural changes due to digitalisation, automation; the internationalisation of the workforce; and the transition towards a green economy. How national and EU-level interventions will mediate the effects of these transformations will profoundly impact the future of European citizens, the economy, and political stability. TransEuroWorkS' multi-level, comparative, and multi-method strategy for scientific and social impact is driven by an understanding that social protection must be sustainable, inclusive, and mobile to address the complex and interlocking transformations of the near future. The project examines eight policy areas: unemployment, sickness, old-age insurances, retraining, work-life balance, family and care policies, gender equality, foreign labour recruitment and freedom of movement, combining conventional protection policies with the more contemporary social investment approaches. Through research in 27 EU-member states and 2 non-EU countries, we address 5 levels relevant to the transforming world of work and social protection: individuals, households, workplaces, countries and the EU. TransEuroWorkS centres attention on social diversity, including gender, ethnicity, education, employment type, age, and household composition in its methodology. The mixed-methods design of the project, including an original survey on public opinion, survey and field experiments, and interviews with company managers and policymakers, will bring new knowledge on the analysis of existing policies and necessary adjustment measures. TransEuroWorkS will co-design research tools with social stakeholders, engage in policy feedback loops with EU and national policymakers, co-produce innovations and solicit feedback from citizens. Thus, TransEuroWorkS is formulated to bring research with the greatest potential social impact to support Europe's residents and a more cohesive, equal, inclusive, and green future.

项目摘要在过去20年中，由于数字化、自动化、劳动力国际化和向绿色经济转型，欧洲国家面临着前所未有的结构性变化。国家和欧盟层面的干预将如何调解这些变革的影响，将深刻影响欧洲公民的未来、经济和政治稳定。TransEuroWorkS的多层次、相对和多方法的科学和社会影响战略是基于这样一种理解，即社会保护必须是可持续的、包容的和机动的，以应对不久的将来复杂和相互关联的变化。该项目审查了八个政策领域：失业、疾病、养老保险、再培训、工作与生活平衡、家庭和照料政策、两性平等、招募外籍劳工和行动自由，将传统的保护政策与更现代的社会投资办法相结合。通过对27个欧盟成员国和2个非欧盟国家的研究，我们解决了与正在转型的工作和社会保护世界相关的5个层面：个人、家庭、工作场所、国家和欧盟。TransEuroWorkS在其方法中重点关注社会多样性，包括性别、种族、教育、就业类型、年龄和家庭构成。该项目的混合方法设计，包括最初的民意调查、调查和实地试验，以及对公司经理和政策制定者的采访，将为分析现有政策和必要的调整措施带来新的知识。TransEuroWorkS将与社会利益相关者共同设计研究工具，与欧盟和国家政策制定者进行政策反馈循环，共同创造创新，并征求公民的反馈。因此，TransEuroWorkS的制定是为了带来具有最大潜在社会影响的研究，以支持欧洲居民和一个更有凝聚力、更平等、更包容和更绿色的未来。
