Abstract
- The concept of decent work and the job quality indicators have long been topics of research and debate among academia. The concept of job quality has emerged as intended to promote social and economic well-being through proactive interest and concern in the wants and needs of individuals at work. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the quality of job-related conditions in the field of caregiving for elderly people and children in the context of Romanians' East-West migration. The present paper's purpose was accomplished using a structured questionnaire. The findings underscore the fact that migrant Romanians working in the caregiving area experience proper working conditions, with the job quality standards frequently met. However, certain job quality challenges have been identified, such as issues connected to work accidents and burnout prevention, unclear employment conditions, or overtime pay that is not always complying with legal requirements. As a result, these findings open the door for further research and debate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
