This book examines different key aspects around new forms of work and gender and intersectional inequalities in platforms, how the platform economy intervenes, changes and reconfigures the organization of work, and the challenges faced by policymakers and workers’ organizations regarding formalization, professionalization, remuneration, quality of work or social protection of platform work.
Including case studies from different countries from the Global North and the Global South, it contributes to a better understanding of how digital platforms are inserting themselves into neoliberal transformations in labour markets, taking advantage of digitization, the commodification of reproductive labour and migrant labour regimes to quickly access a precaritized female migrant workforce with low bargaining power.
It will be of interest to all scholars and students of gender studies, health and social care and sociology more broadly.

Leading authors explore the potentialities and barriers for collective protection and representation of contingent workers in the platform economy, based on the experiences, needs, and aspirations of workers in Italy and Spain. Chapters undertake in-depth analyses of a diverse and innovative variety of initiatives for the protection, organization, and representation of contingent workers. The book ultimately constructs a framework to interpret the evolution of contingent workers’ experiences, allowing trade unions, social movements, and cooperatives to develop organizational and representative practices that better respond to their needs.
This incisive book will be of interest to researchers and advanced students of sociology, international relations, political science, and labour law. Its practical insights will also enable trade unionists, activists, and policymakers in the field of labour relations to make informed decisions and identify possible avenues for development.
