Jobs take their toll: understanding the impact of ageing, gender and occupational hazards on workers

Gyula Szabó

10 December – 11 December 2013,
International Trade Union House, Blvd du Roi Albert II 5, 1210 Brussels: Auditorium

Employers and most European governments tell us we will all have to work for longer. But how can workers in backbreaking jobs do that? As it is, many never manage to work out a full career due to physical or mental burnout. When asked in 2010, “Will you still be able to do the same job when you are 60 years old?”, 41% of European workers replied “no”.

The debate on upping the retirement age is meaningful only if it includes working conditions, particularly unequal exposure to hazardous substances and the gender impact on the quality of working life. This is not just something for politicians and the establishment – it affects all workers.

Researchers, public officials, trade unionists and other social stakeholders will be exploring these critical issues at a two-day conference on 10 and 11 December 2013 in Brussels. The conference will look in particular to three areas where the hardships of work are a big issue: building, motor manufacturing and shopwork.
