Sharing experience, identifying difficulties and drawing on good practices in the field of Work-Life balance in the audiovisual and live performance sectors were the goals of a joint trade union project lead by FIA, FIM, UNI-MEI and IFJ and funded by the European Commission. The project comprised a series of workshops and seminars, as well as a study carried out by project researcher Laurence Cuny. The data gathered during this research is now available in the EuroFIA 2014 Survey on Work-Life balance in both English and French.
Commissioned by the four federations, the study covered 8 countries, with a specific focus on Romania, France, Sweden and Germany, where one-day workshops on this theme took place between March and September 2013. The present document also brings together good practices of integration of work-life balance policies by both employers and trade unions in order to produce clear data, which can then be used for the promotion of equality and the implementation of work-life balance policies.
The main topics covered by the Study are the following:
– Flexibility in working time
– Parental leave
– Precarity of contracts and job insecurity
– Childcare
– Care for dependants
– Information and training
– WLB and gender
