Regulating platform work: insights from the food delivery sector in Europe and beyond

Kurt Vandaele and Silvia Rainone

Chapter 1 in The Elgar Companion to Regulating Platform Work, 2025, pp 1-20 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This introductory chapter sets the scene for this multidisciplinary volume by referring to a number of under-researched areas in the study of app-based food delivery in the platform economy. It provides overviews of the individual chapters – most of a comparative nature – and summarises the overall arguments they make. It also anchors the analytical effort in recent regulatory developments that have led to the adoption by the European Union of the Platform Work Directive.
