2020

 

August 2020

Launch of Stage 1 of the Multistakeholder Dialogue project

The initiative ran a first stage of multistakeholder discussions in August – December 2020. We onboarded 18 project partners and hosted 8 roundtable discussions as well as two workshops with the European Commission. The constructive, high quality discussions that unfolded among the project partners and the positive feedback from policy makers, confirmed that such multistakeholder discussions are paramount. 

Stage 1 involved three work streams: 1) Access to good quality work, 2) Social protection, rights and benefits, and 3) Skills and career development.

Report published: Advancing the quality of work and working conditions in the EU

Diverse forms of employment are on the rise: temporary work, agency work, platform work, and other multiparty work relationships beyond full time, open ended contracts. The growing variety of workforce and workplace configurations promises opportunities for greater labour market participation, increased worker autonomy and dynamic career paths. This report is a direct outcome of the stage 1 discussions and serves as a first step towards an enduring effort to improve work and working conditions for workers across diverse forms of employment.

Launch of Stage 2 of the Multistakeholder Dialogue project.

The second stage of the project is set for April 2021 – January 2022, culminating with the Future of Work 2021 Conference in early September. By having a collective voice that encompasses a multitude of perspectives, we can inspire debate on the policy level and thereby ensure that the European economy moves in a direction beneficial to all concerned.

Stage 2 involves four work streams: 1) Access to social protection, 2) Workers’ representation, 3) Algorithmic transparency and 4) Re-skilling, Up-skilling and Micro-credentials.

Future of Work Conference 2021

The Future of Work Conference is the digital event of the year on the topic of advancing the quality of work and working conditions in the EU! With a high-level expert lineup of speakers from Europe’s most influential institutions, the event aims to spark discussions around future policy directions at national and European level. 

The Conference also presents the outcomes of the second stage of Reshaping Work’s Multistakeholder Dialogue Project where parties with stakes in the debate on the future of work engage in constructive dialogue, exchange views, negotiate positions, and propose new solutions.

Collection of Blogs: Future of Work Visions

Marking the World Day for Decent Work (October 7), Reshaping Work invited a diverse field of experts to express their views for the future of work on the topics of access to social protection, workers’ representation, algorithmic
management, and skills development, providing policy pointers that will lead to improvements of workers’ livelihoods. This collection of blog articles is a result of this invitation and a logical continuation of the ideas discussed at
the Future of Work Conference on 10th September 2021.

Report published: Navigating Diverse Forms of Work

The European economies and labour market are undergoing an unprecedented digital transformation that has accelerated the rise of diverse (non-standard, new) forms of work. While the labour market transformation has been underway for
decades, rapid technological advancements and, more recently, the COVID-19 pandemic, expedited the trend, compelling policy makers around the EU Member States to devise adequate responses.

The report presents the outcome of twelve roundtable discussions facilitated by the Reshaping Work Dialogue project, supported by a systematic literature review of the topic and knowledge of independent experts that partook in writing and
reviewing this report.

Launch of Stage 3 of the Multistakeholder Dialogue Project

The third stage of the project is set for April 2022 – January 2023, continuing the multistakeholder approach in discussion and significantly expanding partner involvement and modes of dialogue.

Workstreams and discussion topics will be announced at a later stage.
