Abstract

This paper highlights the need to analyse the quality of employment differentiated by gender, framed in the debate launched by United Nations on interactions between Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) –in this case, SDG 8 for decent work, and SDG 5 for gender equality -.The analysis is focused on the European Union from 2000 (the starting year for the Lisbon Strategy) to 2017 (when the European Pilar of Social Rights was launched). To this purpose, a multidimensional index, built on with six partial indexes, and with a gender perspective, is used.
