Summary/Abstract: The multiple facets of the quality of employment can be assessed using a set of indicators. Thus, for the countries of the European Union, the article presents an analysis of the weekly working time and the work done during the weekend. The facilities related to the flexibility of working conditions can lead to increased labour productivity. Therefore, the article analyses the aspects regarding the possibility of working at home, but also those regarding the transfer time necessary for moving to and from the workplace. Measures such as reduced working time, flexible work schedules and distance work opportunities can all contribute to increasing the quality of employment. Thus, progress can be made in diversifying economic activities and improving the standard of living
