The European Commission provides an overview of workers’ rights in the EU, covering health and safety, equal opportunities, protection against discrimination, and labor law. It also outlines the EU’s strategic framework on health and safety at work for 2021-2027, adopted in June 2021, which addresses the evolving needs in worker protection brought about by the digital and green transitions, new forms of work, and the COVID-19 pandemic. This resource allows for both quick overviews and in-depth exploration of related policy documents, events, and news.
