Legislation is lagging behind technical and social developments in the labour market, which is posing new problems in both labour law and social security law. To work full time for only one employer is no longer the norm. However, social security schemes and worker protection regulations are often designed for this model. Furthermore, the change in the world of work towards digitalisation, flexibility and a number of employers or contract providers being on platforms such as Uber, Mechanical Turk etc. means that the existing legal foundations no longer do justice to all employment relationships. The new forms of employment are a challenge for both scholars and practitioners of law. The contributions in this volume, complied from the proceedings at the 8th Research Assistants'Conference on the Labour and Social Security Laws, which took place in Zurich from 26th to 28th July 2018, are dedicated to these topics. With contributions by Thomas Dullinger, Antje G. I. Tölle, Mathis Böttcher, Michael E. Meier, Christian Haidn, Pauline Kuhn, Katja Chandna-Hoppe, Daniela Krömer, Jan Armin Gärtner, Daniel Holler. |
