What workers do and how. A European database of tasks indices

Abstract

This paper presents a new and enriched version of the JRC-Eurofound database of tasks indices across jobs in the EU15 economy. After a review of the existing measures and applications, we present the taxonomy of tasks which conceptually underlies the database. Next, the construction of the task indices is presented. We analyse the tasks profile of the European average worker, providing useful insights into work content and organisational methods, and how different indices are distributed across occupations.
