Employment

Employment, based on the statistical classification of status in employment according to the International Labour Office (2018a,b), refers to work for pay or profit, and covers employees, self-employed or family workers. Even though they are used differently across the EU and may refer to distinct legislative areas in certain Member States, the terms ‘employment’, ‘labour’ and ‘work’ are used interchangeably in this report (“The status and working conditions of artists and cultural and creative professionals”, report of the OMC (open method of coordination) working group of member states’ experts, June 2023).
