Some of the datasets, surveys and analytical tools that have come out of my research — hopefully useful for other researchers and policymakers working on similar questions.
A survey on the impact of algorithmic management and AI in the workplace, covering over 70,000 respondents across all 27 EU member states. It measures the use of digital tools, digital monitoring, algorithmic management and AI at work, and looks at the implications for working conditions. Probably the most comprehensive dataset on the platformisation of work currently available.
A database of task indices across EU jobs, built on a taxonomy that captures what people do at work (physical, intellectual, social tasks) and how they do it (autonomy, teamwork, routine, ICT use). Useful for tracking how the task composition of European employment changes over time and across countries.
A long-running JRC/Eurofound project that tracks shifts in the employment structure across European countries, monitoring which types of jobs are expanding or contracting. Jobs are ranked by wages and other quality dimensions, enabling analysis of whether employment growth is upgrading, downgrading or polarising.
Surveys measuring the prevalence and conditions of platform work in Europe. The COLLEEM surveys (2017, 2018) were among the first to estimate how many people do platform work across EU countries. The AMPWork survey (2021–2022) expanded to cover algorithmic management in regular workplaces in Spain and Germany.
A framework for assessing which jobs can be done from home and which can't, distinguishing between technical teleworkability (task characteristics) and social teleworkability (organisational context). Developed during the pandemic and widely used for labour market analysis.
A framework for measuring job quality across multiple dimensions beyond wages — including job security, working time, autonomy, skill development, social environment and physical conditions. Published as a book (Measuring More than Money, Edward Elgar, 2011) and used in many comparative European studies.
A conceptual framework integrating different traditions of analysing work content — task-based (economics), skill-based (education), and competence-based (HR) approaches. Tries to create a common language for interdisciplinary research and policy on work and learning.
