Care work provided in homes and institutions is a public good that is under-valued by society. Most unpaid care work within households is carried out by women. The 'unpaid care penalty' for women in the EU, which is equivalent to the earnings they lost because of this unbalanced distribution of care responsibilities, is estimated to reach €242 billion per year. In this first episode of the chronicle, Dr Meena Fernandes, a policy analyst at the EPRS, will delve into unpaid care work and its impact on women and gender imbalance as well as on our society and economy.

EPRS - Care work in the EU : The care penalty

Care work provided in homes and institutions is a public good that is under-valued by society. Care workers are more likely to have low earnings and precarious working conditions. About 9 in 10 care workers are women. In this second episode of the chronicle on care work in the EU, Dr Cecilia Navarra, a policy analyst at the European parliamentary research service, will delve into the paid work sector, paid care workers and their working conditions.

EPRS - Care work in the EU: Working in the care work sector

Most unpaid care work within households is carried out by women. The 'unpaid care penalty' for women in the EU is estimated to reach €242 billion per year. EU action in the care sector has the potential for high returns for society. Fostering the 'equal earner – equal carer model' could generate benefits of between €24billion and €48 billion a year. EU action to promote affordable, high-quality care could produce an additional €90 billion to €160 billion in benefits each year. In this third and final episode of the chronicles on care work in the EU, Dr Meena Fernandes, and Dr Cecilia Navarra, policy analysts at the European parliamentary research service, will delve into how we can use policy to reverse the vicious cycle of care work and its negative consequences.

By 2035, all new cars manufactured for the EU market should produce zero-emissions. This is what Parliament is aiming for with new rules on CO2 emission standards for cars and vans as part of the Fit for 55 package.
 
Older cars (including diesel cars) will be allowed to continue running until the end of their lifetime, but investing in future vehicles starts now.
 
MEPs want car manufacturers to start developing affordable electric cars and vans now, in order to meet market demand by 2035 and reach the EU’s 2050 climate objectives.
