What Lessons Could Croatia Learn from a Comparative Perspective Regarding the Labour Market Status of On-Demand Platform Workers?

Digital labor platforms play a key role in the digital transition of the European economy and are a growing phenomenon. With its growth, it brings also new forms of employment which are not regulated properly, which does not guarantee elementary labor human rights with a real risk of the precariousness of these forms of work. In the paper, the authors give a review of the EU legal framework and soft-law tools on platform work and elaborate on the labor law status of platform workers together with a comparative analysis of the case law in France, Italy, Spain, and the UK. In the last part of the paper, the authors give an overview of the results of the empirical research on platform work in Croatia, review the legal framework and elaborate on some de lege ferenda suggestions in line with the future EU Directive on platform work.
