PPMI carried out the preparation of case studies on selected public, social partner based or cross-company instruments and regulations relating to new forms of employment, as well as their positive and negative implications on working conditions, social security, employment rights, employment relations and workers’ representation as well as work organisation.
The team, which included PPMI staff, experts on non-standard employment and a network of national experts, undertook desk research, interviews and case studies on enterprises and self-employed individuals, as well as policy instrument analyses on how Member States regulate specific forms of employment.
