It gives more visibility to areas that need improvement and ultimately supports policy makers to design more effective gender equality measures.
The Gender Equality Index has tracked the painfully slow progress of gender equality in the EU since 2010, mostly due to advances in decision-making. While equality is more pronounced in some Member States than in others, it is far from a reality for everyone in every area. Gender norms around care, gender segregation in education and the labour market, and gender inequalities in pay remain pertinent.
The Index allows Member States to easily monitor and compare gender equality progress across various groups of women and men in the EU over time and to understand where improvements are most needed. The 2022 Index has a thematic focus on care in the Covid-19 pandemic. It explores the division of informal childcare, long-term care and housework between women and men.
The Gender Equality Index is a composite indicator. With a total of six core domains (work, money, knowledge, time, power and health) and two satellite domains (violence against women and intersecting inequalities), it offers a synthetic and easy-to-interpret measure for gender equality, indicating how far (or close) the EU and its Member States are from achieving gender equality on a scale of 1 to 100.
Building on previous editions alongside EIGE’s approach to ensuring intersecting inequalities are captured, the Gender Equality Index 2022 continues to show the diverse realities that different groups of women and men face. It examines how elements such as disability, age, level of education, country of birth and family type can intersect with gender and create many different kinds of pathways in people's lives.

It aims to create a comprehensive picture of the everyday reality of men and women at work.
Themes covered include employment status, working time duration and organisation, work organisation, learning and training, physical and psychosocial risk factors, health and safety, work-life balance, worker participation, earnings and financial security, as well as work and health. For the fifth EWCS in 2010 workers were surveyed in the then EU27, Norway, Croatia, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Turkey, Albania, Montenegro and Kosovo.
The data explorer (survey mapping tool) offers a graphical presentation of the findings of the fifth EWCS.
The tables presented here complement the data in the survey mapping tool. The variables in the tables are sorted by topic, and proportions, mean values or distributions are given for different subcategories of respondents. Column A of the tables states the original name of each variable in the survey, with a label that specifies the content of the variable. Column B specifies the different answer categories for that variable.
For some variables, the answer categories have been condensed into fewer categories in order to reduce the table’s size or in order to show the distribution of a numerical variable. The original wording and coding of the questions can be viewed on the EWCS 2010 questionnaire.

En la primera ESENER, llevada a cabo en 2009, se realizaron cerca de 36 000 entrevistas con directivos y encargados de la SST. odos los Estados miembros de la UEs, as Turquía, Noruega y Suiza: 31 países en total. Los entrevistados trabajaban en organizaciones de los sectores público y privado que contaban con 10 o más empleados.
Los representantes de miles de empresas y organizaciones de toda Europa responden a los cuestionarios de ESENER, que se centran especialmente en:
•Riesgos generales de la SST y su gestión
•Riesgos psicosociales como el estrés, la intimidación y el acoso
•Factores impulsores y obstáculos en la gestión de la SST
•Participación de los trabajadores en la SST
El enfoque en los riesgos nuevos y emergentes garantiza que las respuestas arrojen luz en áreas de la SST infraexploradas y de creciente importancia, como los riesgos psicosociales, que son un área creciente de preocupación en los lugares de trabajo europeos.
ESENER facilita datos muy necesarios a los responsables políticos e investigadores en los ámbitos nacional y europeo. No hay ninguna otra fuente de información en el ámbito europeo sobre cómo se gestiona SST en las empresas. ESENER desempeña un papel clave al ayudar a EU-OSHA a facilitar información internacionalmente comparable que pueda contribuir a la elaboración de políticas en materia de SST.2021-05-10T17:39:26Z2016-02-12T11:57:49Z2013 - Eurobarometer Survey - One year to go to the European Elections: Parlemeter parttag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/eurobarometer-2013-one-year-to-go-to-the-european-elections-parlameter-partWith six month go until the 2014 European elections, this European Parliament-commissioned Eurobarometer survey looks at the knowledge and perceptions the Euopean have from the European Parliament.
This is the third part of the EP Eurobarometer survey entitled ‘One year to go to the 2014 European elections’. The first part (on institutional issues) was published on 5 September 2013 and the second one (economic & social issues) on 18 October 2013. The fieldwork was carried out between 7 and 23 June 2013.
The survey was conducted using face-to-face methods by TNS Opinion in the 28 EU Member States, with 27 624 respondents. The results are shown either for the EU-28 (in the case of new questions) or in the form of EU-27 trends.

It focuses on the perceptions and expectations Europeans have regarding the EU’s action, the fight against terrorism and to the mutual defence clause.
It is published shortly after the British voted for withdrawal from the European Union.
2020-03-19T21:18:25Z2016-07-18T13:53:24Z2012 - Eurobarometer Survey - Crisis and economic governance Vtag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/2012-crisis-and-economic-governance-vThis Eurobarometer survey on ‘The crisis and the economic governance in Europe is the fifth carried out by the European Parliament. It was conducted by TNS opinion between 10 and 25 March 2012, in face-to-face interviews with 26 593 Europeans aged 15 and over.
Prior to key meetings of heads of state and government on the theme of the crisis, most Europeans think that the EU has to take action to reduce public spending and boost economic growth at the same time (47%) 25 % of Europeans consider that priority must be given to measures that stimulate the economy, and 23 % are in favour of measures to reduce public spending.
The survey’s findings confirm a known trend which shows a polarisation of public opinion. Indeed, the number of people who do not have any opinion decreases from survey to survey.
Although the primary focus of the current debate between the Member States is whether or not to they should take action together, 55 % of Europeans (=) would feel better protected by measures adopted in a coordinated way with the other EU countries, while 38% (+3) of them are in favour of individual measures.
As far as the ways of tackling the crisis are concerned, there are clear differences between those inside the euro zone (61% in favour of coordination) and those outside it (43%).
Although they are in favour of solidarity, most Europeans consider that financial help for Member States in economic or financial difficulties must be made conditional on compliance with common rules (80%). They also believe that penalties should be imposed when these rules are broken (72%).
Concerning budgetary issues, some 65 % (-2) of those surveyed are in favour of preliminary consultations between European and national institutions whilst national budgets are being drawn up. Once again, there is a very big difference between those inside the euro zone (70%) and those outside it (56%) .
On the financial transaction tax (FTT) we observe, as for the other questions, a clear change in the opinion between the two surveys. Henceforth 66% of Europeans (+5) are in favour of the principle of a financial transaction tax, 73% in the euro zone and 53% in the non euro zone, a difference of 20 percentage points.
Always during these six months, we note a growing awareness of Eurobonds. Today, nearly one European in two (49 %; +7) has heard of Eurobonds. This awareness is greater inside the euro zone (53 %) than outside it (42 %).
Although most of Europeans are in favour of pooling part of the public debt of Member States, their analysis differs on the impact that this may have.
Awareness of the credit rating agencies (CRA) has also increased: 13 countries had their ratings downgraded by CRAs in the last six months. It is therefore no surprise to discover that 61 % (+11) of Europeans have heard of CRAs. Asked whether an independent European CRA should be created to counterbalance the power of the existing agencies, 67 % (+2) of Europeans were in favour. Finally, 54 % of Europeans think that in serious crisis, the CRAs should not rate countries which have been helped by other EU Member States.2020-03-19T20:33:55Z2017-01-17T09:56:24Z2011 - Eurobarometer Survey - Europeans and the crisis IIItag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/2011-europeans-and-the-crisis-iiiThis Eurobarometer survey on "Europeans and the crisis" is the third such survey realised by the European Parliament.
The first one was carried out in January-February 2009, six months before the European elections, while the second was conducted in September 2010. The fieldwork for this survey was carried out by TNS opinion between 13 April and 2 May 2011 on the basis of face-to-face interviews with 26 825 European citizens.
In the seven months since the previous survey, the national and international context has been marked by several major events which have undoubtedly played an important role in shaping the answers of Europeans to the questions posed.
In-between, public opinion at EU level has moved only marginally, whereas there were major shifts between the first and second surveys (January - August 2010). It should be borne in mind that the six most populous Member States account for approximately 70% of the EU 27 average.
Before analysing the results of this survey in detail, it is worth highlighting the main findings:
Europeans are strongly in favour of the principle of a tax on financial transactions at global level, or failing that at EU level initially.
A majority of Europeans believe that overall the euro has not mitigated the effects of the crisis.
To combat the crisis, a majority of Europeans above all want the Member States to act in a more coordinated way.
In the debate on whether to boost the economy or reduce public spending, we note that the economic situation of the Member States has a direct impact on answers. In seven months, they have sometimes varied by between 10 and 38 points.
Tackling exclusion and poverty is still the first political priority of Europeans, although there have been very significant variations in several Member States between the two surveys.
Food security: helping agriculture in developing countries seems to be the most effective measure to the respondents, followed by combating speculation on food products. In terms of objectives, Europeans strongly support several measures of which ensuring that everyone has access to food products at affordable prices and also that farmers have a fair income.2020-03-19T20:29:36Z2017-01-17T11:56:32Z2010 - Eurobarometer Survey - Europeans and the crisis IItag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/2011-europeans-and-the-crisis-iiThis survey of Europeans and the crisis is the second one instigated by the European Parliament. The first took place in January/February 2009, preceding the European elections of June 2009.
Between the two European Parliament enquiries, the European Union launched various initiatives aimed at fighting the crisis: regulations, a European monetary fund, economic governance, 2020 strategy, etc. The Parliament has taken stances on some of these, or is about to, through various global reports.
At the same time, Member States have launched deep budgetary reforms aimed at reducing public deficits.
It is in this context that Europeans were questioned about their concerns relating to the crisis: How they perceive the responses of the EU and the Member States? What they think about solidarity between Member States? Which actors are most able to combat the crisis? What priority policies should be decided today at EU level? What next for the EU in 2020? etc.
27 218 citizens were interviewed face-to-face by TNS Opinion. The results confirmed the great worries of Europeans in the face of the crisis - concerns which were already evident in the former Eurobarometer. The main findings are as follows:
Europeans would clearly like the EU and its Member States to act in a more coordinated way, but less so than they did in January 2009.
They clearly want Member States to be more active in dealing with the crisis.
In the light of a widespread feeling that poverty is rising, European citizens want the EU's policies to be developed with a focus on protecting them directly: tackling poverty and exclusion, improving consumer protection etc. They are more in favour of these individual-oriented policies than global issues, such as climate change.
There is a divided opinion on which kind of measures should be taken to end the crisis: Which is the better route: austerity or economy-boosting measures?
Respondents showed massive support for financial regulation and measures to control the banking system.
They showed clear support for financial solidarity with EU Member States in difficult economic situations.
Respondents support a convergence of the economic, fiscal and financial policies of all Member States.
A significant amount of Europeans found themselves unable to give a definite answer to economic questions on a large scale (national, global etc.). This reflects their sensitivity to the uncertainties of finding a solution to the crisis.
The results also displayed national trends in line with the Member States' domestic situations (which vary greatly). It should be remembered that the EU average is weighted according to demographic and population criteria.
Results also showed uncertainty as to the effectiveness of the euro to fight the crisis.
2020-03-19T20:27:13Z2017-01-17T12:04:42Z2011 - Survey - Europeans and energy (part II)tag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/2011-europeans-and-energy-iiThis Eurobarometer of the European Parliament dedicated to energy follows a previous survey published in January 2011 in view of the European Council of 4 February (EB Standard 74.3). This survey dealt with energy supply, cooperation and solidarity.
Considering the new positions adopted by the European Parliament, this new survey focuses on more specific themes, but also extremely important for the development of an energy policy of the Union: energy savings, energy supply difficulties, integration of networks and the European Community for energy. The fieldwork was conducted by TNS Opinion between 9 February and 6 March 2011, in a context of a hard winter and an increase of all raw materials prices.
it's important to note that both surveys share a common point: the results highlight again how the energy culture and the energy situation of each EU Member States influence the answers of the interviewed citizens.
Two socio-demographic aspects of this current survey have to be kept in mind: on the one hand, apart from a few exceptions, there are few differences between the answers of men and women; on the other hand, the results illustrate a real generational gap which is evident in both behaviour and perception of the energy problems.
On energy savings, European citizens prefer measures without a financial impact.
The priority is given to domestic savings: decrease of use of lightings and of electric appliances (55%), and reduction of heating or air conditioning (43%).
The context is unfavourable to expensive measures: insulation of the house (19%) purchase of a more ecological car (6%).
The awareness related to savings made on the road is to be improved: less frequent use of their car (19%), more frequent use of public transport (14%) and reduction of driving speed (10%).
Europeans who did "nothing" to change their behaviour towards energy savings are a significant number (14%).
Respondents give the priority to practical measures to reduce the energy bill.
They want to be able to daily measure their energy consumption thanks to "smart" meters (47%).
They expect the establishment of a tax incentive (40%).
They are in favour of the creation of conditions for energy providers to compete (36%).
They support the improvement of energy bill transparency and simplification (23%).
Europeans want the objective of 20% of energy savings to be made compulsory (80% of "yes").
Europeans support the fighting against the energy precariousness (81% of "yes").
Assets of a European integrated energy network
It would imply a reduction of energy costs (59%).
It would encourage a better use of various types of energy (47%).
It would make the delivery of energy safer (35%).
It would enhance EU capacity to negotiate major contracts with countries outside its borders (28%).
It would contribute to increase solidarity among the EU Member States (25%).
Respondents show a massive support to the establishment of a European Energy Community (78% "agree").2020-03-19T20:22:59Z2017-01-17T12:23:46ZShe Figures 2015 - Gender in Research and InnovationDirectorate-General for Research and InnovationRTD-SIS7-SHE-FIGURES-2015@ec.europa.eutag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/she-figures-2015-gender-in-research-and-innovationShe Figures 2015 investigates the level of progress made towards gender equality in research & innovation (R&I) in Europe.

The factsheets give the state of play in various themes under the three headline targets of the Strategy: Smart, Sustainable and Inclusive Growth. They place each country in a European perspective by measuring performance and comparing to the EU average, as well as the best and the worst performers in the Union.
Each fact sheet shows the country's national target, the EU target and the highest and lowest targets adopted by other countries. In addition, it measures how far that country is from the target it has set itself and compares this to the EU and the most and least ambitious country.
These factsheets are based primarily on data from Eurostat, but also from the Joint Research Centre, the European Environmental Agency, the World Bank and other sources. The targets have been collected from official documents. In some cases, absolute targets have been translated into relative targets to allow for a cross country comparison.2019-11-20T15:03:53Z2015-07-27T14:14:18ZIdentifying the main cross-border obstacles to the Digital Single Market and where they matter most: DSM consumer survey (2015)European Commission, DG JUST, Unit 03 Economic analysis and evaluationJUST-03@ec.europa.eutag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/dsm-consumer-survey-2015The survey was based on data collected within the scope of a wider investigation that feeds into one of the Commission’s top priorities: to create a borderless Digital Single Market (DSM) across Europe. The Commission’s DSM strategy for Europe, announced on May 6, 2015, aims to provide better access to tangible and digital goods and services, to create the right environment for the development and commercial success of digital innovation, and to maximise the growth of the digital economy across the EU28. As support and evidence base, two surveys of online consumers were carried out, looking particularly into their purchase activity for 12 types of tangible goods and offline services (e.g. clothes, travel services), usage of 4 types of online services (e.g. communication services) and access to 8 types of digital content (e.g. e-books). These included a core survey (covering online consumers from all EU28, Norway and Iceland) and a clickstream survey (targeted to online respondents from Belgium and Poland only who had expressed the intention to make at least one immediate online purchase). The main objectives of the study were: 1) to examine the current state of play of cross-border e-commerce in the EU28 and 2) to identify the main drivers and barriers to the proper functioning of a DSM across the EU.

The fieldwork was led by TNS opinion between 3 and 20 November 2011, in a particularly difficult European context: let us remember, amongst others, the failed referendum in Greece, the change of Prime minister in this country as well as in Italy, the increase in the interest rate of the sovereign debts in several countries of the Euro zone, the general elections in Spain, the G20 summit, etc.
The main findings of this analysis are:
Regarding the priority policies that Europeans want to see promoted by the European Parliament, tackling poverty and social exclusion remains the first concern (49%)
Given the current crisis, it is the coordination of the economic, budgetary and fiscal policies that ranks second with a sharp increase of responses within the euro zone (37%)
However, all policies that are not directly related to the current crisis have for some experienced a significant decline: combating climate change, the agricultural policy, combating terrorism, immigration policy.
Concerning values, the number of responses in which each of them figures is decreasing. The protection of Human Rights comes in first position (56 %), followed by the gender equity man/woman (33 %) and of the freedom of expression (32 %).
As for the role that respondents attributed to the European Parliament, it is important to note the large augmentation of those who want it to play a similar role. On the contrary, as for those who want the European Parliament to play either a more important or a less important role, they are decreasing.
In this context of crisis, the image of the European Parliament does not evolve positively. Neither does the image of the other European institutions, the parliaments and the national governments.
In what concerns the powers of the European Parliament, the election of MEPs and the allocated number of MEP's by Member state, a majority of respondents gave a positive answer. 2019-08-21T14:34:32Z2017-01-17T10:22:35Z2011 - Eurobarometer Survey - Europeans and the crisis IVtag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/2011-europeans-and-the-crisis-ivThis EB/PE survey "Europeans and the crisis" was conducted by TNS Opinion between 3rd and 18th September 2011 on the basis of face to face interviews with 26.856 citizens aged over 15. The previous one was carried out in April-May 2011.
On the question of financial solidarity between Member States, there is a trend to a kind of polarization of the public opinion: the number of respondents who "do not know" decreased between the two surveys, in favour of negative answers.
Credit rating agencies (CRA):
The media coverage of the debates on the credit rating agencies (CRA) in the political, economic and financial world can explain that one European out of two (50%) has already heard about the CRA. Amongst those, a majority (65%) are in favour of the creation of a European credit rating agency.
Euro:
6 months ago, 57% of the Europeans found that "euro has mitigated the negative effects of the current crisis", they are now 54% (-3).
The percentage of those who think that "the euro has mitigated the negative effects of the current crisis" has not changed: 34%.
Share a part of the Public debt:
When asked about the idea to share a part of the sovereign debt, most of the Europeans are in favour of this option although the differences between Member States can reach 39 percentage points on some items.
Eurobonds:
The last months were marked by an emerging debate on Eurobonds within the Euro zone.
A first question "Have you ever heard of Eurobonds?" has been asked in all the Member States: 57% of Europeans answered no whereas 42% answered that they already have heard of Eurobonds (46% for the Euro zone; 35% for the non-Euro zone).
A second question has been raised to the 46% of the respondents of the Euro zone who said that they have already heard of Eurobonds, to know if they "are in favour or opposed to the creation of Eurobonds": 38%are in favour, 33% are against.
2019-08-21T14:31:19Z2017-01-17T10:48:43Z2011 - Survey - 100th anniversary of the International Women's day: Bridging the gender gap in the EUtag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/2011-100th-anniversary-of-the-international-women-s-day-bridging-the-gender-gap-in-the-euThis European Parliament survey was carried out from 21 February 2011 to 6 March 2011 by TNS Opinion on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Women's day.
This survey identifies several key points:
First of all, the results show that, concerning all questions related to gender equality, men and women tend to react the same way. We can wonder whether this 100th anniversary of the International Women's Day should not be considered a real social step forward that contributes to tackle or reduce effectively the gender gap.
The averages at EU27 level must be completed by an analysis of national results that can sometimes turn out to be different. Unlike other surveys and common stereotypes relating to gender equality, we don't find regional or logical trends except in Nordic countries.
Another important point of this survey can be the fact that, among all measures to be taken to achieve equality between men and women, the Europeans favour encouraging measures rather than coercion.
Actually, in order to improve this situation, no matter what type of question, they give a lot of importance to encouraging measures rather than to coercion.
Thus, coercion and encouraging measures reach 30 to 44% depending on the question. However, imposing quotas for women, either inside companies or on electoral lists during the different elections reaches 19% in both cases.2019-08-21T14:27:59Z2017-01-17T12:51:53Z2009 - Eurobarometer European Elections (first survey)tag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/2009-eurobarometer-european-elections-iThis is the first survey devoted to the European Parliament and it shows that it has a positive public image. Although the Parliament, like the other institutions, is not well known, it is considered democratic and is appreciated for its unifying role. Europeans award it an important place within the EU and the majority think the European Parliament is the institution that currently has the greatest decision-making power in the EU. They also think it is the institution that should have the greatest decision-making power.
On the other hand, three out of four Europeans say that in general they are fairly badly or very badly informed about the European Parliament. This figure is almost the same in both ‘old’ and ‘new’ Member States.
For example, most Europeans do not know how many MEPs their country has and they believe that decisions are made primarily on the basis of MEPs’ national interests and not political affinities.
Also three quarters of European citizens say they do not know when the next European elections will be held. Only 10% of respondents said ‘2009’ and only 2% could specify ‘June 2009’.
Finally, the survey provides useful information on public expectations concerning the European Parliament. The policies EU citizens think should be given greatest priority are combating terrorism and climate change and improving consumer and public health protection.
Europeans also expect the European Parliament give priority to protection of human rights in the world, equality between men and women, and solidarity between EU Member States.2019-08-21T14:15:29Z2017-01-17T15:53:02ZGender Training ResourcesEuropean Institute for Gender Equalityeige.sec@eige.europa.eutag:data.europa.eu,2012:/dataset/gender-training-resourcesA collection of tools and resources aimed at improving the competence of policy makers and administrations to mainstream gender in their fields of work.
