Digital Collaborative platforms: A challenge for both the Legislator and the Social Partners in the Nordic Model

Författare

  • Annamaria Westregård

Summary, in English

This paper focuses on the specific problems in the labour and social security legislation as it relates to crowdworkers in the digitalised new economy, analysing their place in labour market, and especially in the collective agreements which are the standard means of regulating working conditions in the Nordic model. Sweden has a binary system where a performing party is as either an employee or self-employed. The law on working and employment conditions offers only limited protection to those on short, fixed-term contracts; instead, it is social partners that have improved crowdworkers’ conditions in some industries by using collective bargaining. However, there are no collective agreements in the digital economy, or indeed for platform entrepreneurs. The complications of the
parties’ positions will be analysed, especially as platforms do not consider themselves to be employers, but rather coordinators of the self-employed.
It is not only labour law regulations that are important to prevent precariat among crowdworkers. It is also very important that the social security regulations adapt to the new labour
market as the social security legislation is an important part of the Nordic model.
