[VIDEO] What does the gig economy mean for workers rights?

  • Alan Sadler
  • 25 April 2017

Speakers at our Ethical insights discussion on the future of work give their thoughts on the effect of the gig economy on workers' rights. They talk about the nature and forms of changing employment relationships, flexibility versus exploitation, and the challenges for unions in helping disparate workers organise.

Featuring:

Abigail Hunt, Research Fellow, Overseas Development Institute (ODI)
Professor Peter Nolan, Director and Professor of Work and Employment Futures, Centre for Sustainable Work and Employment Futures

You can read more about what was discussed on the live blog of the event.
