Gig Work and Future Employment Prospects: A Correspondence Study
Project description
The number of gig workers in the EU is expected to reach 43 million people by 2025 (European Commission 2021, European Council 2022). However, little is known about the role gig work plays in the transition to regular employment. This one-year research project will focus on this research gap.
