Abstract	"Nearly half (47%) of all European respondents are concerned that their children might lose their jobs, though concern about their own jobs or their partners' jobs is lower. The average time spent working for an employer has risen from 11.6 years in 2009 to 12.3 years in 2011. On average, Europeans have changed jobs 3.2 times, marking no change from the 2009 survey. Most respondents are pessimistic about the chances of the economic crisis ending soon: 71% think it will not be over in two years' time. 82% of respondents currently working are confident that they will keep their job, more than in May-June 2009. 65% are confident that they will have a job in two years' time. However, a third of Europeans currently working (32%) think they would be unlikely to find another job within six months of being made redundant. Around a third (30%) of Europeans who are currently working think that their country's unemployment and insurance system would compensate them to the tune of 51 to 70% of their income if they were to be laid off. More than a fifth think that they would receive more than 70% (22%); 28% of Europeans are more pessimistic, and think they would receive 50% or less of their current income. Fairness and social justice in the EU have suffered as a consequence of the economic crisis, according to 79% of respondents. In line with this, 83% of the respondents think that the burden of public spending cuts and other austerity measures has affected some people more than others in their country. 87% of people think that poverty has increased over the last three years (+3 points since September 2010), and only 22% think that enough is being done to address this. If they were made redundant, close to half of respondents currently working would look for work by applying for the same kind of job in the same location but for another employer. More than a third would apply for the same kind of job but in a different location. Overall, 35% of respondents currently working would consider starting their own business in response to redundancy. A majority of Europeans agree that starting your own business is more difficult for some categories of the population (e.g. a person with a disability, a young person leaving full-time education, a person over 50 years old, etc.). Europeans broadly agree with the principles of 'flexicurity', but 51% disagree that many people retire too early. The EU's measures for getting more people into work, such as supporting people who want to start a business, are broadly seen as being effective. Professional experience and the level of one's qualifications remain the two assets that should be emphasised in order to find a job, according to European public opinion. Over the past 12 months, 23% of Europeans have participated in training courses; over half (55%) of them were funded by their employer. A third of respondents (34%) have completed a traineeship; 44% of them think it helped them to get a permanent job. However, more than a quarter consider that it did not help them to find a job (26%). Over a third of the respondents (36%) say spontaneously that they did not receive any careers guidance at school; a third (33%) say that careers guidance helped them to acquire the skills they needed for the type of job they wanted. A quarter says that it did not help them acquire these skills. It is therefore unsurprising to find that there is a general appetite for better information about the future job market: 57-58% would like to receive information that would help them decide what training courses to take, and what jobs to apply for in the future. There is growing awareness of the European Social Fund, which 45% of respondents have now heard of (compared with 40% in 2009). Recognition of the European Globalisation Adjustment Fund remains somewhat lower. In both cases, awareness is substantially higher inside the euro-zone than outside it. More than half of Europeans think the EU has a beneficial impact on general employment and social policies. However, when interviewed more precisely on the different measures, the number of people who think the EU is having a positive impact has fallen in most countries since 2009, very substantially in some."
