A flexible job on platforms with no boss sounds like an ideal opportunity, but watch out!
You might be taken for a boat ride on a deceptively calm sea where unsettling sharks lurk: inequality, unpredictable salaries, union busting, gender discrimination and your boss? Well, they’re just a robot.

ETUC supports the work of rapporteur Gualmini and her allies in her ambitions for a strong Directive that will protect the rights of workers, and the rights of self-employed and ensure fair competition.
