“…Moreover, the European Commission (2020) promoted STW as an effective tool for firms to reduce labour costs, increase flexibility without firing costs, and preserve human capital during a crisis. In March 2020, acting on a proposal tabled by the European Commission, the European Council negotiated emergency funding to be disbursed from unused EU Cohesion Funds, soon to be followed by the ground-breaking agreement on SURE (de la Porte and Jensen, 2021; Pochet, 2022) and signalling ‘this time is different’.

NGEU has complemented the measures agreed upon by the Eurogroup in support of healthcare, addressing unemployment and short-time work, and offering support to firms (Buti 2020).…”

“…With the revival of Social Europe outlined above, the question remains whether there is a rebalancing of the economic and social dimensions of the EU and whether the EU’s economic model is changing (Pochet, 2022).
