Europe's health and social care systems are suffering from chronic staff shortages, rising inequalities and the long-term consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. These issues pose urgent questions about the sustainability and resilience of public services across the continent.

This edited volume offers the first evidence-based framework for tackling these issues. Drawing on cross-European case studies - from Scotland and Finland to Italy, Germany and Norway - the authors examine the structural, contextual and political factors shaping labour shortages. Using social democratic, neoliberal and corporatist welfare models, they present a compelling rationale for renewed investment and long-term growth in public services.
