Subject: New GLC article: The economic crisis and job quality in Europe:
Some worrying trends and worse may be to come
To: <list-glcol...@ilo.org>

**

Dear GLC readers,

In today's GLC, Janine Leschke and Andrew Watt present the key findings
from their research on the effect of the crisis on job quality in the EU.
They find that the crisis has had diverse effects across Europe and on
different elements of job quality. The authors argue that the negative
effects of the crisis faced by European workers have been both quantitative
and qualitative. As Leschke and Watt's analysis ends in 2010 and since the
European crisis is far from over, they warn that European workers may still
face worse effects of the crisis.  *At the time of writing this column
Andrew Watt was a senior researcher at the European Trade Union Institute,
focusing on European macroeconomic and employment-related policies, and
recently especially on the crisis in the euro area. He is now the Head of
Department at the Hans-Böckler Foundation, responsible for the
Macroeconomic Policy Institute (IMK). **Janine Leschke is a senior
researcher in the field of comparative labour market and social policies at
the European Trade Union Institute. Her current projects are dealing with
the labour market and social impacts of the economic crisis, job quality in
a comparative perspective and intra-EU labour mobility.*

We encourage you to make comments at the end of the article.

**Winter/summer break** The GLC will take a winter break (as we are in
South Africa) and return on *3 September 2012*. We have a number of
excellent pieces lined up and look forward to sharing them with you.

Till the next column,

The GLC editors,

Nicolas and Phumzile
