| Sumario: | [EN] After the 2008 crisis, gender gaps in workers' health and well-being have persisted in different EU countries. Using 2010 and 2015 data from the European Working Conditions Survey, this paper estimates synthetic indicators by gender, considering workers' health status as well as environmental, organisational and psychosocial factors at work, by means of the P2 distance measure. The study attempts to answer questions such as which countries evidenced the largest and smallest gender gaps in both years and where these gaps widened or narrowed in addition to what mechanisms support these results. Policies aimed at preventing and addressing occupational risks –in particular, psychosocial risks– would therefore be desirable to reduce these gaps. |
