Abstract
The rise and proliferation of the online economy, centred specifically on platforms, has opened new opportunities for private individuals to sell their labour in new and more flexible ways. Either full or part-time or when convenient or requested.

Or at least this is how the unions prefer to present the matter and as always the truth is more complex
