"Casual Work Arrangements and Platform-Based Work is a trailblazing book offering in-depth research on specifically positioning platform work in the context of casual work arrangements. Platform work - in which work activities are channelled through web platforms or apps - has emerged as one of the major transitions in the world of work over the past decade. It presents several labour law issues related to casual work, often linked to insecure or precarious working conditions, such as unpredictable work schedules, an insecurity of work for the future, the lack of a stable income, and exclusion from even basic protections The author meticulously evaluates how strategies aimed at regulating casual work can be extended to enhance these insecure working conditions faced by platform workers."-- Publisher's website.
