Atypische Beschäftigungsverhältnisse in der digitalisierten Arbeitswelt

Berndt Keller and Hartmut Seifert

WSI-Mitteilungen, 2018, vol. 71, issue 4, 279-287

Abstract: Forms of atypical employment in the digitised world of work The article discusses the impact of digitalisation on forms of atypical employment: part-time work, mini-jobs, fixed-term work and agency employment as well as solo self-employment. On the basis of plausible considerations and the analysis of past developments, the following trends can be expected: The extent of part-time work is likely to increase, among other reasons, as a consequence of teleworking. New forms of employment such as crowdworking could replace mini-jobs as a functional equivalent. Digital platforms could change agency work, and hybrid employment in the form of combined dependent and self-employment could increase. Overall, segmentation of the labour market is likely to intensify, becoming more polarised. Generally, the possible structural changes are not determined by technological developments, but depend on political and collective bargaining arrangements.
