The Confederation of Autonomous Trade Unions of Croatia (SSSH) has launched a campaign titled ‘Work Tailored to the Human’. “After a series of discussions and conferences with representatives and members of trade unions, as well as workers, experts, and others, we have defined our concept of ‘Work Tailored to the Human’, which is SSSH’s response to the question of what constitutes a good workplace and how to improve the quality of jobs in Croatia,” said Mladen Novosel, president of SSSH, in a press release.

SSSH’s concept of ‘Work Tailored to the Human’ represents a comprehensive definition of six different dimensions that constitute a quality workplace: Work tailored to the human is well-paid, does not endanger physical and mental health, allows for learning and advancement in the workplace, provides security through permanent employment contracts and coverage by the social security system, enables workers to have a voice in the workplace including the freedom of trade union organization and action, and takes place during working hours that, in terms of quantity and organization, leave enough space for private life and its planning. A workplace can only be considered quality if it meets all the aforementioned conditions. ‘Work Tailored to the Human’ in all dimensions of workplace quality takes into account the well-being of workers and the democratic organization of the world of work and the working environment.
