Abstract: The problem of precarious employment in social enterprises has not been thoroughly researched in scientific literature. This study addresses this gap by examining the factors that impact precarious employment in social enterprises in emerging economies. Based on a Polish case study of 200 social enterprises, the findings indicate that this impact differs depending on the scope of the use of flexi-forms of employment in an organisation. The study emphasises that policymakers should pay particular attention to reducing bureaucratic obstacles and complicated formalities related to the use of public money in social enterprises. This study provides managers with real evidence about the causes of precarious employment in organisations.
