Meet the platform Workers
Food Delivery Edition
Reshaping Work 2018
Reshaping Work 2017
At “future of work” conferences there is usually a lot of talk about platform workers but opportunities to hear their voices are much less common. Platform workers are inarguably one of the most important stakeholder groups – after all, it is their future that is at stake. Therefore, hearing their perspective is of crucial importance.
To include platform workers in a debate that is essentially about their lives and livelihoods, this session is structured around the questions and comments they bring to the table. What are their perspectives, priorities and uncertainties? What changes would they like to see with respect to how their work is organized and valued – if any? And is there even a unified “they” to begin with?
