Abstract

This scientific endeavor, the issue of work polarisation according to the education level in the EU`s Member States is addressed. The theoretical aspect of the problem is reflected in this scientific endeavor through the scientists`contributions concerned with this field. Thus, several opinions and arguments are presented regarding the work polarisation, by highlighting education and lifelong learning on this phenomenon. In the paper, the work polarization depending on the education level is achieved according to the International Standards Classification of Occupations developed by the International Labor Organization. Methodologically, the work polarization in the European Union was analyzed based on statistical data provided by EUROSTAT, as well as provisions of the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training.
