Sažetak
Temporary employees represent a significant portion of the EU-28 labour force with a share of 14.3% in the total number of employees in 2017. Temporary employment typically has a negative connotation due to job insecurity and lower pay of temporary employees compared to permanent employees. Certain groups of workers, less educated and young employees for example, are much more likely to be temporary employed. Some other groups like women exhibit higher temporary employment rates compared to men, though these differences are minor and decreasing. This paper focuses on describing and analysing key trends related to temporary employment in the EU-28 countries within the 2002-2017 period. After identifying groups of employees most affected by temporary employment, it aims to provide explanations and reasons behind differences in temporary employment rates amongst different demographic groups.
