Arbeitsrechtliche Fragen der Plattformarbeit

In den letzten Jahren haben Digitale Arbeitsplattformen, über die Erwerbsarbeit massenhaft angebahnt und abgewickelt wird, einen regen Zulauf erfahren. Die neuen Arbeitsformen eröffnen neue Chancen für Auftraggeber, Auftragnehmer und Vermittler, bergen aber auch vielfältige Risiken, namentlich arbeits- und sozialrechtlicher Art. Der Autor systematisiert die neuen Erscheinungsformen, ordnet sie arbeits- und sozialrechtlich ein und gibt einen Ausblick auf kommende Entwicklungen

»Labor Law-Related Questions Concerning Platform Work«: Over the last years, digital working platforms over which paid employment is initiated and wound up in large numbers grew steadily more popular. The new forms of labor on the one hand create new chances for contractees, contractors and agents. On the other hand, they car-ry significant risks in terms of labor and social security law. The author systematizes the new forms of labor, puts it into context of labor and social security law and outlines the future de-velopments.
