New Work Forms and Challenges for Public Policies
نویسندگان
چکیده
The focus of this study was to analyse the diffusion and challenges of “ICT-induced atypical work”. The term atypical has no value judgement. It covers all the new work forms, different from the classical work pattern of the full time male job, during the whole working life with the same employer at the same place. This classical work pattern is the basis of current labour legis lation, social protection systems, and models of industrial relations in Europe. As a consequence, all the new work forms are at the margin of this regulatory framework and the potential benefits of these new work forms, for individuals and employers, are counterbalanced by risks of exclusion or precariousness. The term “technologyinduced”, given by STOA, refers to the enabling role of advanced information and communication technologies (ICTs) in the development of a wide variety of new flexible work forms .
