Abstract

This report maps employment contracts and career models with a view to gain knowledge about where and which groups of researchers suffer most from precarious careers. It suggests policies to reduce the precariousness of researcher careers and indicators to monitor progress. It follows a mixed methods approach, using as much as possible internationally comparative data.
