Labour market flexibility and security in the EUIgnjatović, Miroljub (Avtor) Evropska unijaFleksibilnostFlexibilityLabor marketPovertyRevščinaSocial securitySocialna varnostTrg delatrg delovne sileThe article deals with the profound changes (reducing various forms of security) that modern European labour markets are experiencing due to changes in dominant paradigms in the current period and to processes such as globalisation and flexibilisation. After analysing Eurostatʼs labour market and social security indicators, we could confirm that there are different flexibilisation 'models' in the EU since EU countries are using different forms of flexible employment as the primary source of flexibilisation. We also found that the 'selection' of a particular form of flexible employment is strongly correlated, among other factors, with the level of wealth accumulated in a particular society and that the different forms of flexible employment produce different levels of risk of poverty.Fakulteta za sociologijo, politične vede in novinarstvo v Ljubljani20122015-12-30 12:18:15Delo ni kategorizirano76907sl
