European Pillar of Social Rights
The European Pillar of Social Rights (EPSR) sets out 20 key principles and rights to support fair and well-functioning labour markets and welfare systems, and more resilient economic structures across the EU, its Member States, and regions. It is accompanied by a ‘Social Scoreboard’ that tracks trends in Member States’ performance and allows for cross-country comparison across 12 key indicators linked to the principles
The 20 key principles in the Pillar are structured around three areas:
- Equal opportunities and access to the labour market;
- Fair working conditions; and
- Social protection and inclusion
