  2. WageIndicator web-survey in 21 EU countries for WISUTIL adapted to energy, water and waste 7 of 21 countries were “new” WageIndicator countries Recruitment EPSU affiliates undertook recruitment actions WageIndicator websites using teasers, inviting visitors working in energy, water or waste to complete the survey WISUTIL web-survey
