“…Projections for the SDG targets in Austria for 2020 were presented by Bilek-Steindl and Url [13]. They showed that the SDG8 targets are strongly linked to the underlying economic situation and that the outcomes of the COVID-19 pandemic are evident in the results for 2020.…”

The goal of this research is a static geographic comparison of the degree of Sustainable Development Goal 8 (SDG8) implementation and to compare its dynamics for the European Union (EU) in the period of 2002–2021 with the consideration of the COVID-19 pandemic. The level of implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development objectives is monitored both jointly and individually. This research uses the COPRAS, the Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) and the hierarchical clustering methods. The study confirmed the geographical diversity in the degree of SDG8 implementation. Nordic countries have the highest degree of implementation, while Greece, Spain, Italy, Romania and Slovakia have the lowest. Some less-developed countries (Czechia, Poland and Malta) were in the cluster where the implementation improved, and some well-developed countries (France, Luxembourg and Portugal) were in the cluster in which the situation did not improve or improved at a low degree. It was not possible to identify geographical diversity in the dynamics of changes in the degree of SDG8 implementation. The COVID-19 pandemic caused the decline in the degree of SDG8 implementation. The added value of the study consists of comparing the dynamics of the degree of implementation of SDG8 using the DTW method. The obtained conclusions may help to create policies for EU countries in this regard.

“…In the literature, one can find empirical studies conducted based on all or selected indicators of the aforementioned goal, which were carried out for selected areas and periods using various econometric tools. Among the studies on European Union member countries (and others), one can mention an analysis of labour market inequality in the EU (Jianu et al, 2021); a partial order analysis of Eurostat SDG 8 data in the EU (Carlsen, 2021); an assessment of SDG 8 implementation in G20 countries (Lapinskaitė & Vidžiūnaitė, 2020); nowcasting and monitoring SDG 8 in Austria (Bilek-Steindl & Url, 2022).…”

The research objective of this article is to compare the European Union member countries in terms of achieving the sustainable development goal of economic growth and decent work during the Covid-19 pandemic. Research Design & Methods:The study used a set of quantitative data, the realization of indicators proposed for Goal 8 of the document Transforming Our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development signed at the summit in New York, 25-27 September 2015 by the leaders of the UN member countries for all 27 EU member states. The analysis was based on the tools of multivariate statistical analysis, a model method for linear ordering of objects proposed by Ching-Lai Hwang and Kwangsun Yoon -the technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS). Findings: The grouping of member countries according to the degree of implementation of the above-mentioned indicated a very good position of five countries with the highest value of the synthetic measure (Neth-

“…The interest given to the identification of the route to be taken towards the achievement of these objectives was concentrated both at the global [25] and EU levels [26], locally-the member states [27,28]-as well as outside the EU area, the objectives being analyzed together [15], then at the objective level [29], but also only certain targets that compose various objectives [30,31].…”

Sustainable development is a very important and highly debated concept worldwide, with almost all states around the globe recognizing the importance of supporting a balancing of economic, social and ecological plans to create a more prosperous and equitable world. The purpose of the current study is to identify the current context of the progress achieved by the EU member states regarding the 17 sustainable development objectives. Following the implemented research, it was found that Romania is one of the countries with the lowest performance, so an attempt was made to make a short-term forecast in the case of this country in order to determine its future course. In this sense, the Holt–Winters trend methods were used, which are based on historical data to predict future values. According to the analysis carried out, the predicted values are mainly encouraging, but it is necessary for the competent authorities to become more involved because, in many aspects, Romania is at the bottom of the European Union (EU) ranking regarding the analyzed indicators.
