Summary:        This Yearbook sets out to distil Eurofound's key findings during 2009. The first to be published as part of Eurofound's four-year work programme 'Better work, better life', the 2009 Yearbook can deliver only a partial picture of Eurofound's research findings, given the breadth of the work undertaken every year. However, as a glance through the Yearbook reveals, the impact of the recession dominated Eurofound research across its various areas of expertise. Moreover, Eurofound's periodic, longitudinal research proved its worth, demonstrating the changes that have followed in the wake of the downturn to date.
