This report is the result of research conducted in Spain as part of the GDPoweR project, the aim of which is to recover and use personal data collected by food delivery and ride-hailing platforms on their workers in order to verify the degree of implementation of collective agreements on these types of platforms and thus improve industrial relations in this sector.

This thematic paper sheds light on the extent and nature of “temporary agency posting” through a legal and empirical analysis of the manner and conditions under which TWAs are involved in posting, their characteristics, the risk of non-compliance, and enforcement challenges.

The dataset contains original data collected through an online survey targeted at posting and receiving companies about their access to information regarding the posting of workers. As the first of its kind, this pilot survey study provides a window into the posting information access practices, challenges, needs, and recommendations of posting and receiving companies in the construction sector. 

The increase in demand for long-term care raises questions about the capacity of governments to provide access to needed care, how these services will be properly resourced and who should receive these benefits. This book provides a roadmap for investing in long-term care systems. It argues for increased public investment in high-quality, universally accessible long-term care and explains why these systems benefit everyone: households, health systems, economies, and societies. Bringing together a team of academics and policy experts from around the world, this book explains why and how governments can, and should, take action. Ricardo Rodrigues, Cassandra Simmons and Kai Leichsenring have contributed a chapter on the impact of long-term care on the financial situation of families in Europe.
