The project For Quality! offers a qualitative analysis of the current situation of PHS in eleven European countries and offers to stakeholders a powerful tool of exchange towards improved working conditions in this sector.
This major project is co-funded by the PROGRESS Programme of the EU and has been running since November 2014, under the coordination of PLS, in partnership with eight partner organisations, of which Social Services Europe, which the EPR is a member of.
