近年来，所谓的“零工经济”在数量和重要性上呈指数级增长，但其对劳工权利的影响却在很大程度上被忽视。“零工经济”中的工作形式包括“众包工作”和“通过应用程序按需工作”，在这种情况下，工作活动的需求和供应是在线或通过移动的应用程序匹配的。这些工作形式可以提供很好的就业机会，并允许灵活的工作时间表。然而，它们也可能为工作的严重商品化铺平道路。本文讨论了这种商品化的影响，并主张充分承认演出经济中的活动是“工作”。
The so-called “gig-economy” has been growing exponentially in numbers and importance in recent years but its impact on labour rights has been largely overlooked. Forms of work in the “gig-economy” include “crowdwork”, and “work-on-demand via apps”, under which the demand and supply of working activities is matched online or via mobile apps. These forms of work can provide a good match of job opportunities and allow flexible working schedules. However, they can also pave the way to a severe commodification of work. This paper discusses the implications of this commodification and advocates the full recognition of activities in the gig-economy as “work”.
