The International Labour Organisation (ILO) is crafting new standards aimed at protecting gig workers from the precarious and exploitative nature of platform economy jobs. Partnering with numerous civil society organizations, they demand protection through provisions such as proper employment classification, fair wages, social security access, and transparent algorithm use. As gig workers often face biased decisions and deteriorating rights, the proposed ILO Convention seeks to combat these issues by promoting workers' rights and ensuring accountability in digital management practices.
The new ILO standards must halt harmful practices in the gig economy, ensuring fair treatment and rights for workers subjected to algorithmic management.
Together, we call for a convention that assures platform workers' rights amidst the risks of data exploitation and emphasizes human involvement in decision-making.
