Abstract:
The paper aims to identify and analyze the changes in quality of employment in Romania in the context of crisis. The assessment of quality of employment is based on the analysis of dynamics of a range of indicators describing various aspects of the phenomenon. Data show that, in Romania, women are the most affected by unemployment in the context of crisis, although their unemployment rates are lower than those of their male counterparts. If compared with EU 27 average, the level of trust regarding the possibility of finding a job of similar pay if losing or quitting their current job is significantly lower for Romanian workers regardless of the category to which they belong. The main policy tools adopted by Romanian government in response to crisis effects on quality of work and employment aimed to maintain labour demand, to make the unemployed more employable, and to support disadvantaged groups.
